《The Gathering (Sky: Children of the Light)》~Chapter Nine~
Advertisement
The Gathering that day was in the Hidden Forest, and they were learning to sense animal emotions. Or more specifically, creatures of light. Zaira had been given the chance to try with a Light Jellyfish. Looking around, Zaira saw Sunny petting a manta, Rayem was talking to Ao, Edna was feeding a small flock of birds, and Eclipse was being carried around by enthusiastic butterflies. Zaira sighed. She couldn't do anything with her assigned jellyfish. A gong rang out, signaling the end of the gathering. Zaira drifted off the jellyfish and onto the wet ground. She flew over to her friends, landing next to them.
"Why do you guys think the elders decided to start a gathering in the first place?" She asked them. Sunny shrugged.
"I dunno, maybe it has something to do with those children of SHADOWS." She laughed at the last part.
"I do wonder if the elders know about the children of shadows," Zaira mused.
"Who knows..." Edna muttered.

"I AM MEZ, THE CONQUEROR OF THE REALMS. BOW TO ME, OR YOU WILL MEET YOUR FATE." Boomed a voice outside their tents. The three sky children peeked outside. It was late at night, even though it looked like daytime. Outside, there was a short sky child in a black cape and mask, with a Mohawk, shouting at the top of their lungs. "MEZ, SAVIOR OF THE WEAK, PROTECTOR OF TH-"
Sunny smacked them with her piano.
"Some people are trying to sleep here!"
Mez glared at everyone and told them, "I want to conquer this realm."
"NOPE, you may leave now," She said, pulling out a beam of light. Mez's eyes widened.
"It's not a myth," She whispered.
"What's not a myth?" Eclipse asked
"Children of Light"

8 220The Faction Contributor [Sci-Fi LitRPG]
While casually studying for his upcoming university exam, Aven suddenly felt the world around him start warping. It started with flashes of light appearing from nowhere, quickly escalating into his whole world becoming an absolute mess of flickering pixels and chaotic color flows, as if reality had become a malfunctioning glitched screen. What he could recognize as numbers, letters, and strange symbols flew everywhere around him, obviously trying to form a coherent whole to be displayed before his eyes, but such attempts kept failing, again and again. Before he could even start thinking about how both mesmerizing and absurd this spectacle was, however, it all stopped, as suddenly as it had begun. Accompanying the end of this unique show, 2 things happened. First, knowledge had spontaneously appeared in his mind and he could perfectly understand it, as if it had always been there, just inaccessible. Second, a weird simultaneously hot and cold energy had made its apparition inside his body completely unannounced. Aven had just simply and purely awakened his innate ability and the energy potential of his cells, joining the world of the supers, a minority that had always controlled and protected the world since ancient times, by becoming one of them. *** Do you have a sci-fi itch to scratch? Maybe that story can help~ It’s not a comic story that doesn’t take itself seriously. It’s also not a grimdark story, going to the depth of making sure the environment is the worst one ever. It’s just a serious story, a rational one, one you can comfortably dive into, written by a guy who already got some writing experience by having seriously written more than 2 000 pages of another serious story prior to starting this one. Enjoy *** Update: 3 chapters every week (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) Chapters: Around 3 000 words each.
