We enter the tent, and it's a small one like always—barely enough room for two people. I lay down and relax as I contemplate more strategies to take on this heist quest. Sally snuggles up next to me and uses my body as a pillow. I don't mind it. She isn't going to try anything more than that. I close my eyes in the silent comfort that has been given to us. I won't be allowed to have such private moments other than being far away from church-aligned cities. Now that my identity is revealed, I'm going to…-

We walk back into the cold forest and stay silent. The method on how we got her mana aura isn't a usual one, but we have it now. "I take it this means we are heading to Bellvia now?" Sally asks me about the subject currently on my mind. I have a lot of complex jobs to do in Bellvia, and with the addition of the heist on their treasure room, it's even increased in difficulty. I don't know how I'm supposed to complete all the quests without getting caught. Perhaps that's the point. Maybe overwhelming force…

We've been flying in the direction of The Ice Giant's Mountains for a few hours now. The players have returned by now. So it's only a matter of time before my identity is revealed. I knew it couldn't last forever, but I'm going to miss the easy life I have now. I'm guessing the mountains covered in snow that's a few minutes out are what we are heading to. Sally hasn't said much most of the trip, and that worries me slightly. She must still be thinking about the elves. I won't lie. They are on my mind too.…

There probably won't be another chance for me to talk to The Secret Keeper of Titans, so I should ask as many questions as I can. "Do you know what happened to my people from earth? I know you know way more about players and our origins than we do. Billions of people died from my earth during whatever transfer happened. Can you tell me anything?" I have more questions after this one. What happened is partly my fault, but others are to blame too. I want to know why it happened. What purpose did it serve? I…

I land us right outside the city and out of view. It's been 10 hours since we left The Valley of Fallen Gods. That's two hours till players return to their original continents. "We'll sneak in. I'd rather not ask and go through as much hassle as last time. The cover of the night will help us in this endeavor. There are only a few hours till sunrise as well. So we must hurry." I don't like sneaking into such a place, but I intend to get this done fast. I have more important things to do than play word games…

All that's coming is sure to cause major shifts in plans for everyone. The biggest is all the players returning to their original continents. Space and isolation in smaller towns and cities are about to become harder to find. I bet many players are level 50 now too, and many will be heading to their capital cities for their tier-up quests. "I want you to know that new people are going to be coming back in the billions! I don't know what the church told you! New people like me get notified differently than…

I've never experienced power like this before. I absorbed 100% of the mana aura from the stone pedestal. I see Fenrir looking at me with calmness and wisdom. I wouldn't have been able to do this without him. I want to see the new health and mana I've got. I have several new notifications to go through, but first, I want to talk to Fenrir. "Thanks for the help. I would've died if you didn't jump in saving me. I wasn't nearly strong enough to fight that creature. Do you have any idea what that was?" He…

I can easily handle this monster while Zern takes the time to absorb the mana aura. I haven't seen the face of Mammon in a long time. This is a powerful monster that shapeshifts into things you never want to see again. That's the impression I can draw. I look over to Zern and see that he is in a trance-like state, taking the mana aura into his body. "What kind of creature are you? I've been alive for a very long time, and I've never encountered something like you. The ability to mimic forms and actual…

The player model I'm looking at with my own eyes is certainly Blue Chaos. Many screenshots of what he looked like circled the forums. "Blue Choas? Are you really here..." I ask the man, but there is no reaction. I don't know what this place is or what it does, but this is not normal by any means of the word. "How are you here... You should have died with the rest of the people who didn't make it..." In reality, this question is stupid but necessary. If he answers, then it's him. If he doesn't, then it's…

The marker is getting closer and closer on the map. The Valley of Fallen Gods is coming into view as well. I've never been this far North on the continent. I don't think any player has. The snow and cold are almost as bad as the dungeon for Sally's legacy class. I don't have to worry about Sally. She might be immune to the cold now. "We are getting close to the valley! I'll bring us down, and we'll walk the rest of the way!" I dive at max speed, and I hear Sally squeal in both fear and surprise. I didn't…
