《Endsworld》Introduction/Foreword
Advertisement
{Hello there, reader(s?).
This AU was inspired by the image I've attached to this li'l chapter-thing! It's legit my favorite fanart I've ever seen, by nicktoonsunite on Tumblr (one of my favorite artists); additionally, an apocalypse AU called "Endsworld" apparently already exists, something I found out having started this story. I'd like to take a moment to say that, obviously, this story is affiliated with theirs, and any similarities are coincidental since the only thing I can find on that AU is this photo. If you manage to find it shoot me a link, , I'd love to see it. I'm an absolute sucker for edgy AUs.
Speaking of images and such, though, I too am (sort of) an artist so I might end up drawing things for this story and adding them in where they fit. And if you, dear reader, do art-stuffs too and want to draw something for this... PLEASE show me what you draw because holy heck that'd be cool. And I'd even add it to the story (only if you're okay with that!).
Moving on to what the story's actually about...
Despite the photo only being Matt, Edd and Tom, I'm gonna include Tord too, because even though he's Terrible (well, post-The End) I still love him. The dynamics in the show are still the same—Tom and Tord don't get along (no TomTord here, sorry, y'all, I know it's popular but I personally just don't get it. No hate to anyone who ship it though), Matt likes everyone but most of all himself, Edd and Tord have been friends for longer than Edd's been friends with the others, et cetera. They might act a bit more serious, sure (there's virtually no way this will be a Light Happy AU, sorry, but it also won't be Doom and Gloom and Emo Shit 24/7), but I'm not aiming to destroy readers' souls. For one I can't imagine killing off one of the main four...but no promises at this moment in time. It's a li'l too early for that.

This starts rather far after whatever events led to the apocalypse, meaning the first chapter will probably be something like "Hey look it's four dudes wandering around a destroyed English town." There might be some kind of deeper plot further on but I'm really just wingin' it, doing stuff for fun. The designs I'll create for the main dudes will also be different from the ones in the attached photo, because I don't want to steal anyone's ideas, and so therefore I'll eventually be uploading my drawings of those designs. I'm gonna keep to their canon color schemes of course, but I want it to be a different.
Anyways! Sorry for prattling on so much. Last note, most chapters will be slightly upwards of 3,000 words, because I've found that's a nice length for a fanfic chapter. If you think that's too long or too short, well... Oh well!
Let's get this show on the road, shall we?}

The Ascendant: Endless Reincarnation
My name is Richard Brooks. I died while saving a kid. Kicking the bucket at 28 was really depressing, you know? There’s so much I still wanted to do. But instead of passing on, I was thrust into an endless series of reincarnations. Whenever I die, I earn Karma points based on my achievements and growth. These points can be exchanged for weapons, spells, or other bonuses to make my next lives more interesting. “What kills me only makes me stronger!” Or something like that. Honestly, it feels like I’m stuck in an RPG. The difficulty setting can be pretty ridiculous too. Sometimes all I can do is grit my teeth in frustration as I die an ignoble death. But I won’t complain. Even when it’s dangerous and painful, I love life. This is all an opportunity; I’ll do my best, no matter what kind of sadistic fate the System throws at me. I will swing the warhammer of justice! Craft and enhance the most amazing artifacts! Overwhelm opponents with a barrage of auto-casting spells! Lead powerful vassals in Domain wars! All for the sake of creating an eternal sanctuary. With my unique power of Runecrafting, maybe I’ll even become strong enough one day to overturn fate… or at least find out what the hell is really going on. It might take a few hundred or a thousand lifetimes, but what’s the rush? I have all the time in the world now. (Note: R15+ This is the work of a very inexperienced author with a full time job. Please expect an erratic release schedule.)

In Pursuit of Glory
I felt a huge physical force slam into my back. I didn't have any time to think as I rocketed into the wall and felt the drywall dent beneath my body. Eyes wide, I groaned and began to push off the wall when, unceasingly relentless, my assailant backstabbed me with a knife to my gut. I gasped; being stabbed there is no laughing matter. Even today, with all the advances of science, a wound like that can easily be mortal. Most likely would be. I gasped for air with a snarl, funneling the wind into my lungs to help them expand after being pancaked into the wall. Nobody f***ing backstabs me and gets away with it. If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I love being alive. I love it more than anything else. It’s something only a dead person can understand, and I feel myself forgetting all the time. But there’s a secret to death, and I keep it with me. Always. It’s never permanent, it’s never peaceful, and it’s always filled with regrets. But death, despite all of its shortfalls, can give a short respite from life, like a comfy afternoon nap. Death is Respite. It’s a rest for the weary. And to all those people who wander in death lonesome and regretting their broken lives - always, without fail, cut too short - I beg them to take advantage of it. I tell everyone to take advantage of death, even when I can’t bring myself to do so. --- Ciaran travels the world in pursuit of Glories, unfathomable, power-bestowing balls of golden light sequestered in difficult-to-reach places. A fun fantasy romp with a character with an unorthodox narrative voice trying to find his purpose in the world.
