Standing in front of the shivering Rebecca was none other than our store manager. He was dressed in a long brown coat and navy blue pants, with our store uniform underneath. He wore a curious and worried expression as Rebecca wobbles back ducking down behind the counter with her hands gripping her head. Her whole body shakes uncontrollably, sweating dripping onto the floor. "Manager? What's wrong Rebecca?" "He-He-He." "Ian, what is wrong with Rebecca? I just walked in and she screamed." "Umm, I'm not…-

I could feel sweat dripping down the side of my cheeks and a shiver running down my spine. What was that? Was it my imagination? I blink several times, checking myself from different angles but… I look normal. Was it really just my imagination? Ignore it? Maybe… I shakily walk away from my mirror and exit the house. I feel afraid of being alone at this moment, the thought of something happening to me while I was home alone scared me. I unconsciously touch my throat and headed towards my…

The night passes and morning rises. With the sun peeking over the horizon I open my eyes. A small yawn escapes me but that does not stop me. I can hear the soft chattering outside already. Light footsteps can be heard and the moment I walk outside I can see everyone moving about. The ones who I told yesterday night to come with me are already setting up things we need. We needed food, water, and equipment. Both food and water are being filled at this moment with the help of Lucina, sorting out what food…

I wait until dinner before discussing and announcing my plan. The day goes by smoothly, with the only incident being Sylvia getting upset because Luke didn't say anything when he left. Eventually, she calmed down after beating up a few demi-humans and goblins in a spar, but at least those NPCs experienced what it is like to verse an angry person. I also saw Solar's healing abilities in action again and after getting to know her more I was finally able to observe her stats. Name: Ǝɿiɒloƨ (Solar) Race:…

"So, how does the map look like, Ian?" "Well, it is kind of more of what we know so far about our surroundings. The map became integrated with the system after I picked it up. Let me bring it up." I think of the map and a blue screen appears in front of me. A map of the surrounding area appeared, showing the waterfall, river, canyon and forest. At the same time, the map showed past the forest. It was a large stretch of plains before hitting a mountain range and like all treasure maps, there was a large…

It's been a long fortnight without Kingston. I can only hope once he comes out, he can relax. Every day, I talk to him, and each day I feel like he was losing a part of himself. I might not have been the closest person to him but still, I consider him a friend and seeing him destroy himself with the Ikanda challenges hurts me as well. During the time he had been gone, HavenFall had gone through a lot as well. I told him it was a surprise since I wanted him to have something to look forward too. "Leader…

A dry laugh escapes my lips, but I instantly regret trying to laugh. My lips crack and bleed, while the depths of my throat hurt from the lack of moisture. I swallow what little saliva I had in my mouth. Unable to move, I just stare at the blue box. It might not have been as long as the first challenge, but it definitely wasn't any easier. Who knew how good air felt as it travels down your windpipe and into your lungs, then back out again. What a shitty game. I close my eyes. I lay there. Slowly…

The previously cramped hallway expands outwards until it was the size of a tennis court. At the same time, the walls crumble, and in exchange dirt and rocks piled on top of one another, creating mountains on all 4 sides. The solid ground below me softens, replaced by a grainy texture. I step back, and my foot slips, bringing my knee to the ground. Sand sprays everywhere, covering my lower body and parts of my upper body. What made it worse was the little light the game gave me vanished. Darkness enveloped…
