Facing the corner, nervously breathing were 5 goblins. 2 in the front, shields in front of their faces and knives in their hands. 2 more behind with spears pointing forward ready to puncture the enemy and finally a lone archer at the back poised to shoot at any moment. Not too far away hidden behind small rocks and protruding edges of the cliff was the rest of the team. 2 shields nearby the main party ready to engage at a moments notice while not too far away was the spearmen and I. Located on the other…-

I push off the ground and dash past the stunned humans on the ground. Following my command, the goblins ran after me, running around the humans and making them human shields against the monster. "Yo! Gabe! That dude is a player!" "Yea and Kingston just died and we have a big ass stone human freak thing in front of us what do you want to do? "Shut up you two and run! Every man for themselves." "Just leave the demi-humans they are just NPCs anyways." "Okay, okay, running." I couldn't believe what I was…

Luckily for me, I left my weapons with the goblins near the entrance so there were fewer things to weigh me down. Unluckily for me, I left my weapons with the goblins. I HAVE NOTHING TO DEFEND MYSELF IF THEY REACH ME! "L-Leader Ian, leave me. I'll stall for time!" "Are you kidding me, GomiTwo? Those things will rip you to shreds in seconds while chasing me. Don't waste your life like that. Do you not believe I can outrun them?" "Umm, well...They do be gaining on you." "It's fine. It's all part of the…

After going through my uneventful day I return to Settlement. We were still positioned in the cave poised for battle in case the enemy had a method to scale the wall. "Did anyone see who attacked us?" While I did know that they were human-like figures, they were still far away and I was doubting myself. One of the archer goblins answered my question. "Leader Ian, I had a look through a gap in the shields. There were 10 enemies. They look like a mix of human and demi-human or humanoid monsters. Less…

I glance at the ring and kept following the river making sure to observe the surroundings. The goblins in the front had their shields already raised and their knives in their hands. Focusing on the front, they move forward leading the slow charge. Glancing left and right were the spearmen goblins. Following my orders to a T, they make sure to check every potential hiding spot with their spears before telling the shield bearers to move forward. I was surprised by their coordination and when I asked them…

Early mornings, with the sun, just peeking over the horizon. Golden rays wash over the landscape and the branches flutter in the wind. The rustling of leaves and the crashing of water are nature's alarm clock. I open my eyes to another beautiful morning. I walk out of the house and step down to the river. Kneeling by the river, splashing water on her face was Melody. Her black hair was slightly wet on the edges, eyes closed and a satisfied smile on her face. Slowly, I walk down the path glancing between…

I open my eyes and the first thing I see is the blue sky. I'm back and I have a game plan. With the new ring, I have a goal and that was to find the tin deposit, mine both tin and copper and then find a way to create bronze. Since today was mainly a day of rest for most of the residents I instead consulted old man Hus about the future plans. Standing up and leaving Celine and the wolves I slowly walk over towards the first shelter we made. It had been converted into a storage house as well as a workshop…

Waking up and doing my daily exercise has become a routine. Every day after gaming I would run around the block twice, doing some pushups, planks, squats and other body-weight exercises. After working out I would have something to eat for breakfast, usually eggs, toast and the occasional bacon or sausages. It was 0800 when I got a message from Evan in the group chat between him, Sabrina and myself. "GUYS! Look at the forum. Some players have finally met each other and posted about it." - Evan. "On it!" -…

Slowly we drag our feet back to HavenFall, our tired bodies and mind preventing us from moving quickly. Only the wolves and the goblins that was in the lead looked okay as they moved along. David was being helped along by Frank, after the battle, his chest started to hurt and after removing his chest plate there were small bruises here and there. After the adrenaline during the fight wore off the pain started to kick in making it hard for him to move. Howard, being beaten down by Balta, was being helped…

Owen, covered in green blood, popped his head out of the crowd and looked at me. "We killed him? Wasn't he meant to be an orc general? How? How did we kill him already?" I shrug my shoulder and smile at him. The rest stopped their assault and the once-proud orc general was reduced to a pile of meat and bones. "I guess even a general can be beaten down with numbers…" I quietly mumbled my thoughts while Balta's body disperses. Everyone rested against the canyon wall exhausted from the fighting inside…
