Finally, the month of torture was at an end. I mean… scribing, not torture… right. Jessex and Udona had both long since explained the plan to me, though from different perspectives. Jessex wanted to play up that the kingdom of Lyrea was more specialized for scribes, and that I’d be able to more easily find the materials I needed there. …

I’ll admit, a part of me was tempted to use my remaining lottery ticket after seeing my ‘prize’. What’s the worst that could happen, I get another ten silver worth of paper? I… hope that there’s not actually a worse prize than that. Vivi… out of morbid curiosity, how many prizes are there worse than what I just got? There …

I let out a long sigh as I pulled the headset off of my face, sitting up in the bed. My body felt stiff after lying in one position for so long, but also oddly well-rested. One of the nice features of Ashley’s game product was that it had a ‘sleep’ mode. That way, whenever you played the game, you …

How are things going out there? I thought towards the fairy, knowing that my message would reach its intended recipient, even if I didn’t verbally say what I wanted. And, sure enough, the fairy responded moments later. It’s weird, not being able to see all of this myself. I can still hear your thoughts, but they sound more distant, like they’ll …

In the process of creating my ki path, I was pleased to find that I had not only gained two levels in the Ki Control skill, but I had even gained a level overall. This made me smile, even though I knew that I would be nowhere near the top level of the area. Those who had been battling this …

Life’s Dream made contact with the scribe. A gruff voice spoke into the mind of a dwarven man who stood amidst the slaughter outside the city. Like everyone else, he wore only the most basic of clothes, having not been able to upgrade yet, instead investing in a large axe he carried over his shoulder. However, there was still something odd …

After finding a nearby inn, I spent the rest of the night performing the extremely repetitive task of creating firebolt scrolls. Once I had made ten, I received another Scribe Ticket, adding it to the one I already had in my inventory. But for the most part, I was happy with a different benefit that I received. Inscription has reached level 2! …

Within the city square of Xanjara, a golden-haired kitsune jumped up onto the fountain’s edge. When she spoke, her voice carried over the calls that various people had been making to form groups. “Assembling the Life’s Dream!” She shouted out, her brown eyes lively as she surveyed the crowd. “I answer the call!” One voice spoke up, a human male …

I felt the familiar warmth of the light enveloping me, casting me down to the world of Vision Expanse. The game had been set to release at midnight, or at least the local midnight, which had a shared timezone with the city that I arrived in. This meant that the city was full of life from the… rigid NPCs that …

As Leowynn and I entertained ourselves in one of the sitting rooms of the citadel, I was able to watch the world below. I could see the forces that began to shift and gather at my summons. Already, millions of beings were moving, more and more passing through the gates to arrive at Earth. When they got there, they all …
