《The Ruins of Rimnir》The Alchemist, Prologue

First Look: The Ruins of Rimnir, the hottest MMORPG of 2022
Gone are the days of questing. Gone are the days of the mindless grind. Gone are the days of playing with your fellow man.
With the launch of The Ruins of Rimnir, Dante Lowe has sought out to create a game that changes everything. This is an MMO that takes no prisoners. The risks are real. The rewards mean something in real life. Rimnir is no child's game. This is a system that changes the world of gaming as we know it.
And it all started with Lowe's invention, the RMR system. To play The Ruins of Rimnir, or RoR as the kids are calling it, you strap on the patented RMR head gear, which works as a virtual reality simulator, complete with visuals, noise reducing technology, head set, and mic. The RMR system also comes equipped with its own controller, so you're playing the game in the traditional ways of gaming. No full body suit here. Let your thumbs to the work, just like console games. The system comes in all forms, from basic to the delux model, which features water cooling systems, enhanced visuals, and more.
"I am pretty proud of this system," Lowe says, his wide-toothed grin lighting up the room around him, "You're completely immersed in the game when you're in it. It's killer. I just lose myself when I'm playing."
Rimnir boasts a whole new way to enjoy the game. Players will start out as part of the Consortium, the neutral faction, and you can chose to stay there to enjoy the crafting and trading aspects of the game, or chose a side.
The Coalition is the first faction, located on the west coast of the game. Join the Coalition to help secure farm lands and resources to help fight off the bothersome Dragonkin from the north.

The Syndicate is the second faction, located on the east coast. Help the Syndicate by mining resources, sailing off to sea, and beating back the Coalition while warding off the Dragonkin as they attempt to make their approach.
"This is a PVP style game with PVE elements," Dante explains casually, "Attacking the other faction is the name of the game. There are no quests, no mindless "gather 10 things and come back" style crap in my games. No, you're gonna hone your skills and murder."
And there's a lot at stake in Rimnir. If your character dies, it's gone. There is no healer to resurrect you, no graveyard to respawn at. You're a goner and you will lose more than just your gear.
"At death... you'll lose all of your aethys crystals," Dante says with a note of glee in his voice.
Aethys crystals are the currency of the game. They're used to trade for goods and services, used to power up your magics, and can be traded in for real life currency rewards. So, if you lose those aethis crystals, you're losing real money.
"Everything is at stake," Dante explains as he pulls his cap over his dark eyes, "But everything is a reward."
The Ruins of Rimnir is set to be released on September 27, 2022 and is available where all games are sold.

Artificial Fantasy
While the revolutionary discovery of Advanced Dive Virtual Reality (ADVR) lead to the birth and trend of VRMMOs, 18 years old Hayate Palmer only cares about his future for his younger brother rather than living out his fantasies in a virtual world. However, when Kazuki convinced him of playing Isekai Online, he decided to give this trend a try for his brother's sake. Yet what they don't know is that they are stepping not into a life-or-death or some kind of world-changing prophecy, but a special adventure that discovers the life of the game's AI and their brotherly love.

Cybernetic Dragon
Idea Seven, or Inter Dimensional Explorer Automaton Unit-7, has had a bit of an accident. Hijacking the egg of a dragon rather than its intended target of a bird egg, it isn't fully in control of its host brain. Rather the two, dragon and cybernetic AI interface, must work together to survive in a hostile world of magic, dungeons, beasts and adventurers. The AI must deal with being a machine from a world of science trying to carry out its mission of exploration, while the dragon, Rex, must deal with being a cyborg living with symbiotic nanotech that sets him apart from other dragons. What adventures await them? Author Note: I tagged this story GameLit because it contains concepts like levels, classes, and dungeon/beast cores. But, it isn't tagged LitRPG because no one has status screens, other than occasionally Idea Seven who likes to organize data into blue boxes. It isn't a natural function of the world to display level ups or skill ups with an announcer voice. I mention this to set expectations, because otherwise I feel like LitRPG fans might be disappointed by my lack of LitRPG elements while others might be turned off thinking I have a lot of LitRPG elements. I think that if you approach the story with an open mind you will appreciate the gradual way in which the main character learns and expands his understanding of how the world works, but the game mechanics aren't meant to take center stage to the actual story.

Red Smile

Rise of the Goblin Dungeon
Jason loved to play dungeon games. The feeling of power to govern over a kingdom of monsters brought him utter deligth. Now his dream will come true and he will become a Dungeon Lord himself. Will he prevail or will the self depicted Lord go under along with his new found home. This is my first fiction and english is not my native. Just to have you warned. With this I want to do a little experiment, if anyone has an idea or wants to see something happen (for example some kind of monster or adventurer to show up etc) write in the comments and maybe I'll integrate it into the story if it fits.
