  • Chapter 78 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson Dead of night, with only the moon and stars to illuminate the surroundings. The constant stream of water echoed throughout the village. The rustling of leaves in the night breeze. I open my eyes to an unfamiliar but familiar sound, a single long howl. I get up from my leafy bed and exit the mud house. I wasn't the only person alerted by the howl. Celine, Howard, Robin, Noah and Owen all exited the mud house. We look at each other and nod proceeding to the cliff. Meeting us at the entrance were 4 goblins…

    by Jessica Anderson Chapter 77 -  Scutum "Old man Hus! Are you ready?" I call out to old man Hus once I got closer. His beaming expression told a thousand worlds. I had Lime prepare another fire nearby as well as all of her black glue sticks as well ready to soften the glue at a moment's notice to begin the sticking process. The original scutum is slightly convex however, bending wood requires a bit of time as well as resources. Creating clamps to hold down the wood as it glues together as well as build frames and molds…
  • Chapter 76 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson A new morning. Waking up to the roaring sound of the waterfall and the golden ray of light. A big smile on my face as I breathe in the fresh air. Standing at the top of the path looking over the canyon, seeing the wolves taking a morning walk. With the only adult wolf in the lead, the young wolves follow behind her closely as they around in circles. I stand next to Ariel's Statue looking at it being bathed in the morning glow. Old man Hus walks up to me enjoying the early morning as well as giving me a…
  • Chapter 75 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson I stand up, grin and clap my hands together. It's time to do some work. "Maces, shields and arrows. These 3 things will be our first step in improving our offense and defense. To explain, the maces are going to be very simple. Big rock plus wooden stick, done! Arrows, simple as well. Lots of them, however, the head is not a point instead it will be something like a ball of flammable objects. We can use tree sap, small vines and tinder to create the head of the arrow. These arrows will be set alight before…
  • Chapter 74 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson After reading the text, I could feel my heart skip a beat. I look at Sabrina and she was already on the web browser searching up the forum. Quickly I do the same and once I opened the forum it was the first post I saw. "To the guy surrounded by goblins in the canyon" - EyeSpy We will find you! We will find you and kill you, your little goblins and your NPCs. To any other players who have seen/heard or have any information help us avenge our friends. This player who we will call P, lured 3 of my friends,…
  • Chapter 73 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson I look at Sabrina's stone-cold expression. Her eyes carefully look at my expression as she places her head on her hands propping them up. "It felt weirdly disturbing. Like...Like I truly died." "Are you ok?" "Well, if you consider the fact that I woke up in cold sweat, spent 3 or 4 hours thinking back to the moment and then came here. Yea, I'm okay." "So you are not ok, don't worry that's why you are eating at a cafe with a cute girl." "Where is the cute girl? I don't-ARGH!" A sharp pain shot up…
  • Chapter 72 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson "Not free, sorry." - Evan "Where?" - Ian "Cafe next to the game shop. TTYL! CYA!" - Sabrina I put the phone down and get up to pour myself yet another cup of water. Most of the early morning I had been drinking water and watching random movies but now it was time for my daily routine, exercising. I go out of my house and do some light stretches before jogging at a nice slow pace. The sun had already risen over the horizon and a nice golden glow was blanketing the suburb. I pull my hoodie over my head…
  • Chapter 71 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson It is still late at night for most people and since I had died in the game I could not go back into the game until tomorrow. I didn't feel tired so what can I do during this time? For the past month and a bit, this was the time I was in the game experiencing a different world alongside characters' who I have established a bond with but now I don't even know what is happening in the game. I poured myself a cup of water and sat at my table, pondering on what I should be doing with my time. I had no work…
  • Chapter 70 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson My legs feel like jelly. My lips cracked and peeling. My throat is as dry as a desert. My eyes wander aimlessly. My head is spinning. The pungent smell of blood and urine fill the atmosphere around me. I wade through a thick ocean of blood and flesh as it slowly merges and mixes with the constant flow of the river. From a glistening aquamarine blue to a vivid dark ruby red. My knees drop and a small wave of blood splash against me, slapping across my face covering me in this mixture. My eyes void…
  • Chapter 69 — Civilization Cover
    by Jessica Anderson "Aim at the face archers! And spearmen when thrusting, thrust at the face and then quickly retract ready to defend against a counter-attack!" I pick myself up and push my wet hair to the side grabbing my spear with my free hand. I see GomiTwo opposite me holding onto a spear behind the shields. I can see the tip of the spear shaking up and down slightly as well as GomiTwo's terrified expression. "L-l-leader...I might be w-w-wrong about defeating it." Through the cracks of GomiTwo's teeth, he squeezes…
