《World of Telduria》Chapter 1

"Husband, look!" a slightly frantic, melodic voice called out. The woman was clad in, if you could call what little thing she was wearing for clothes, green and red garments that looked like they were made out of leaves. Her long hair in a neat braid that hung over her shoulder. Her hair looked like it was in all the colors of the year, shifting constantly from the muted colors of early spring to the height of summer before shifting into autumn and eventually into a white winter land and then the cycle starts again. She was relatively average in stature in comparison to the women of the land but with a gorgeous face and nicely proportioned.
Tiinra was acting all giddy about the new development, the aberration, that had occurred within the world. For one, it was a new creature within the world. Secondly it had passed through the shield and layers across the world that protected it and sealed it away. How this happened, she had no idea. It was something that should never been possible. Even for a goddess like herself, she was restricted by the seal across the world. It was not something she could do anything about. So why was this woman in this world? She scanned the ritual that the humans had used. "Oh...oh...that doesn't look good. She's going to have one rough time that one." Her eyes and now the Stoic eyes of her husband was following the developments.

Kim groggily woke up to the worst headache she had ever experienced. Her head felt like it was going to split apart from the pounding headache that she was experiencing. She could not even open her eyes and instead just clutched her head. She tried to rub the headache out of her head. What had she been drinking last night? The summoning, dungeon, everything had to be a horrible dream didn't it? It's not like such things happen outside of novels. She chuckled lightly as her hands explored her head.

Her hand brushed against the protrusions on her head, and she froze. "Oh come on...that's bullshit." She sighed deeply as she felt her two horns curving upwards from above her ears. Kim slowly sat up and her wings covered up her mostly naked body. "I guess it's real after all." Not that she would complain too much about it. It was something she had wanted in her heart. But perhaps in their own world or a world of her choosing instead of being thrown into a random world that she had no idea about.
Another sigh escaped her lips as she came across the third wrong thing about her head. The shard that was sticking out from her head. When she touched it she could 'feel' something coming from it. A desire to claim and expand. A desire to harvest materials, living or not. She let out a laugh. "Dungeon huh? Guess all the flame I heaped on others for their inefficiency is coming back to bite me in the arse." Another deep sigh escaped her lips as the headache slowly started to dissipate.
Shakily she tried to put some strength into her legs and arms. Her body slowly rose from a sitting position to a standing one. Her arms wrapped around her chest along with her wings, tightening the grip and making her feel less exposed. "Not that the character herself would care at all, huh." It was really hard to accept that she really was in a different body, in a different world. Had she been split away from her old one? Perhaps the Kim of earth was living on, oblivious to whatever happened to the Kim here. Since she no longer looked like her; should she become the character that she now was? Or was that going to happen no matter what? Would their personalities merge or would the character's personality overwrite her own eventually?

Broken out of her own thoughts by the blue box that popped up in her vision she decided to actually try to figure things out. "All right," she took a few deep breaths. "Guess I'm the core. Like, merged with the core. I'm in a different world, in a different body, as some hybrid thing... Fuck me sideways..." Kim started looking around at her surroundings. She was in some sort of crevice. She could faintly hear running water in the distance. Part from that it was just coarse rock wherever she looked.
"Who knows if I need to eat with this body or not, so running water is a good start," she said to herself, mainly to keep herself from thinking too hard about what a heap of trouble that she was in. "It said something about founding my dungeon. Choosing a location where to place it." Her eyes looked up towards the sky. She could see a few stars from her position in the crevice. Kim took a few deep breaths before she uncurled her wings from around her body and let herself feel them. Somehow she knew just how they worked and how she would be able to fly. "All right, finding water it is."
Her wings flapped once, and she shot up into the air. She knew from pure physics and what she could feel and knew about her body that such a thing was impossible. Angels can't fly, not from a logical standpoint. But angels themselves weren't very logical and based in facts; were they? She could feel the airflow against her skin but it never became as bad as it should have been with the speed she was flying. It actually felt quite nice, not to mention the view from up here. She stayed hovering up in the air for a long time, taking in the sight, until she was reminded by another blue box that she should choose the location for her dungeon.
Kim focused her mind, drawing on the power she felt from within to enhance her hearing. It wasn't that hard to call upon the powers, she had written all of them originally after all. She knew all the powers that the character was supposed to have. However, they were quite muted in comparison to what they were supposed to be. Perhaps this was due to the dual nature of her new body? It didn't matter too much though. She felt the need to found her dungeon getting stronger and stronger. Perhaps it would overwhelm her soon and force her to just place it instead of choosing a location. And that was something she really wanted to avoid.
She focused on the sound of the river and started flying towards it. It didn't take her long to locate the river from above, it had only been perhaps a few hundred meters away from where she woke up. Kim slowly started descending towards the location, making sure that there was nothing else nearby. The last thing she needed right now was even more trouble in her life. She found out that the river had made a canyon type formation in the rock. "Not too bad of a location I must say." she said aloud and touched down near the riverbed. She focused the wall near the river and stretched out her mind towards the rock itself and 'tore' out a small cave, barely enough for her to fit in.
Dungeon location chosen. Dungeon startup initiated. Please hold.
"Here we go."

The Unstoppable Ascension of Zu Mari, Time-Looper
Zu Mari will never be stopped! Zu Mari will ascend to the heavens! Zu Mari is a downtrodden cultivator without any hope of becoming powerful. OR SO HE THINKS! One day fate intervenes on his behalf to give him everything he'd ever dreamed of, ALL THE POWER HE SO RIGHTLY DESERVES! And then, finally, everything starts going his way. (Well... kind of.) [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] wooooo!! Let's do this! Just to clear up some misconceptions, this is not a parody and it is not a satire. Zu Mari does include over the top humor and exaggerations intended to amuse, but satire is a very specific thing which this is not. I certainly haven't read enough xianxia to properly satirize or parody them. It's just a silly project I'm writing for fun, with a meta story that makes me laugh. Expecting anything else will only end in disappointment.
