Chapter 9. Gymnopedies
Authors' Note.
Thank you for reading what I have written so far.
I will add more chapters in the next few weeks,
I would like dear reader, at this point, make a confession of a
" literary conceit ", although not in the truest meaning of the term.
Within the chapters of this unfinished story, and the story before it,
are riddles - the answers to which, are songs and artworks.
It is not my intention to promote the artists or infringe their copyright.
I am hoping to give the reader some enjoyment in making some
connections and solving a puzzle or two.
Happy to answer questions you may have. Any ideas or suggestions
you would like to share would be appreciated -

MAZE - The Endless Quest
As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18, she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore. That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up, she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that. The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go. ############################## The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm. Everyone has a level, status, and even skills are a common thing. If your stats are good, you can also become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters, creatures, and things that the natural world is missing, such as magic and demi-humans. The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer, but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream. It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge. The rhythm might be a bit slow for some, but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it.
