"Lloydieeeee you're lateeeeeee" Aria whines
Lloyd stood in front of Aria's door to her apartment.
"I'm sorry" Lloyd hugs her "being the green ninja is getting a bit out of hand, I didn't know we'd actually become famous, Dareth is booking so much stuff for us to do"
"And before that, you were possessed by a ghost" Aria crosses her arms
"I didn't tell you about that" Lloyd says "how did you find out?"
"uh.. well it's not like it's a secret Lloyd" Aria sweat drops "everyone knows about it"
"oh right" Lloyd chuckles "I guess you're right, sorry I've been so busy my mind isn't completely here"
"It's alright" Aria smiles "you're here and that's all that matters"
"Right" Lloyd smiles
The two sit on the couch and watch movies together all day. In the middle of changing movies Lloyd went into the kitchen to make food for them. He turns and catches the glimpse of something down the hall.
Lloyd looks at Aria, who was busy changing the movie, before going down the hall and opening her bedroom door the rest of the way. Right on the desk near the door sat a hilt holding a sword.
"Is it ..a katana" Lloyd mumbles
Lloyd reaches towards the sword before he heard Aria from the living room.
"Lloyd I got the movie in"
Lloyd quickly exits her room and enters the living room.
"Really, great" Lloyd smiles
Lloyd sits back on the couch with his arm around her, halfway through the movie Lloyd notices a cut on Aria's arm.
"hey how'd you get cut?" Lloyd asks worriedly
"Oh, at work I banged into the wall" Aria tells him "I guess I didn't notice I got hurt"
"You should be more careful honey" Lloyd kisses her forehead
"Yeah sorry" Aria laughs

Lloyd sits in his room at the monastery looking at the pictures media had taken of Overlord Aria.
"Cole!" Lloyd shouts
"Yeah!" Cole responds from the living room
Lloyd walks out of his room and into the living room.
"Your cousin.. the new Overlord.. what's she like?" Lloyd asks
Cole takes off his headphones "what's she like?"
"yeah" Lloyd sits on the couch beside him
"Well.." Cole thought "She's complicated"
"Complicated how?" Lloyd asks "my dad told me Aria used to be a ninja in training, is that true?"
"well yeah" Cole rubs the back of his neck "my cousin was taken in by Wu after her mom died and uh.. you know obviously the Overlord wasn't around.. but soon after Aria's grandfather took her away. Aria then lived in Ninjago up until recently"
"She lived in Ninjago? As a citizen?" Lloyd asks
"uh.. y-yeah" Cole answers "is everything alright? Why so interested in her all of a sudden?"
"Well I just thought I'd know a bit more about our enemy" Lloyd stands up "thanks Cole"
Cole watches him leave "yeah.."

Isoptera
Reincarnated, Crete finds himself not in some overpowered human body with the basic kill the demon lord cliche. No, he is reincarnated as a weak, powerless, and quite frankly worthless existence. Maybe his was a mistake, as he wasn't even reincarnated as a human but instead a humble and meek existence, A termite. Follow Crete as he adventures, without the memories of his previous life intact, in this New World, Honera. He trudges on endlessly with his indomitable willpower and journeys as a meek termite who is fraught with trials and tribulations; as he seeks for the power to just live in peace and without the prejudice everyone seems to have against his kind. Upload Schedule: M-W-F Hey guys this is my first attempt at a novel, based on the type of fiction I enjoy, it'll be mostly slow-paced at the start as I try to work out the kinks and learn more about "Isopterans". However, if y'all enjoy it leave a few nice reviews, or if you don't, leave some constructive criticism. Both would be appreciated. I also would be setting up a Patreon if any are interested in donating to help fund the story or you can send a donation through PayPal directly. I want to create something that we as RRoaders can enjoy together. You can also access the Discord here [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
