'Drip . . . . . . Drip . . . . . . Drip . . . . . Drip’
as the sounds of dripping water settles the girl opens her eyes and sees herself in a clear white room avoid of anything except a single golden pedestal with a human shaped hand print imprinted into it, when getting up the girl's body feels heavy while her mind is confused from the memories of her dying in the well, but now she’s here.
(Unknown): "young child, who died before her time i offer you a chance of a second life in a new world”
the girl turns around frantically looking for the person who said that but to no avail,
(Ruby): " what do you mean, reincarnation or something like that ?"
(unknown): " yes exactly, all you have to do is touch the podium in-front of you and choice what you wish to be"
the girl walks to the podium and examines it before placing a hand where there is already an indented hand-print, with this the whole podium starts glowing.
(Ruby): "e-rm OK, now what am i supposed to do no."
she is cut short as the podium's base disappears leaving a hovering plate where it was connected to the girl now with clear blue screen with writing.

Ruby looks at where her finger pressed and sighs as she finds out it was her own fault for not looking where she was poking.
After the announcement disappears the screen changes into something like a stat screen

(Ruby): "it seems good for a start but what’s are these skill points used for?"
(Unknown): "there used to buy skills for you, to access the skill list press and hold on the skill point option"
Since Ruby has nothing else to lose she does as she is told and within 3 seconds the screen changes into a list

Everyone knows how the general story is supposed to go. A man, unwittingly going about his normal and ordinary life, is suddenly whisked off to a game style fantasy world where he is expected to become the unwavering hero of the realm. That is until the summoned hero throws a Hail Mary and gets himself transported to a tutorial world before the summoning can be completed. Add in a clumsy goddess and a broken planet and that is just where our story begins... Greetings all, thanks for taking the time to read this. This is my first story here on RRL and it's becomming one of the things I look forward to working on each day. As of June 2020, the story description has been updated (now that the characters have told me what was actually going on this author thought it prudent to update this) . Updates will be sporatic as i have time to juggle real life with writing. You the readers have become an integral part of the story helping to decide how things will progress, so enjoy the story and please leave a review or rating so this author can continue to improve the story. New chapters coming soon with edits to existing ones in process As a side note, I wish I could add a science tag to this. While this is still fiction, I have been incorporating real life scientific theories and explanations for how things could be *plausibly* explained. (No, I will not lecture on these points, but they are added to author notes) ~badw0lf

The Prince of the Sand
“Today you have to be the strongest man of all, son. After we deliver you, you will survive, and we will die.” When the Xalya Dungeon is about to fall under the attack of an alliance of savages, the last lord of the steppe entrusts his firstborn with a painful mission: Dashvara has to pass himself off as a member of an enemy clan, as a Shalussi, to exact revenge in a shameful way. Forced to see his people killed or enslaved, this heartbroken but still proud and humorous steppe man will soon be dragged in a surprising adventure that will shake his will and beliefs. This story follows Dashvara as he struggles through foreign lands and discovers that the world is not only made of deserts and horses but also of “civilized” societies with strong bureaucracy and slave-based systems. Author's note: The fantasy setting has some ancient Roman influences. Also, expect a bit of slice-of-life and comedy along Dashvara's philosophical journey. Despite the “gore” tag, violence is not the focus of this story and descriptions are not particularly gruesome. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a reworked and continued translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2016 and 2018.
