Chapter Four: Frozen
"Why is there so much fucking snow!" Andrew uses his hammer to shovel a path, "How long has it been?"
Wundah looks for a time clock but none exists, "About a hour now."
"Something like that." AvatarPyro says as they reach a ice clearing ahead.
"Battle formations." Wundah quickly says.
"What are they?" Andrew whispers.
"Keza and Zama." AvatarPyro unsheathes his sword.
"Let's do this." Andrew sprints out ahead, there's three Keza giant leech dragons and three heavily armored lightning snow dragons called Zama lounging around.
Andrew leaps in the air and crashes down on one of the Keza’s heads, blood gushing all over the ice floor.
AvatarPyro cuts a Keza head off and throws his sword at the Zama next to it, the blade lodges deep within its skull, crushing its eyes.
Wundah does a vicious combo, killing the two Keza at the same time.
"Well that was quick." Andrew chuckles.
"We've gotten used to fighting." AvatarPyro struggles to pull his sword out of the dead Zama. The sword is covered with blood, but one mighty swing and it splashes onto the ice floor.
"I know we can do even better." Wundah sharpens his sword.
"True shit." Andrew chuckles, sheathing his hammer.
"Let's just keep going." AvatarPyro begins to trudge through knee-deep snow once more.
Time goes on as the Adventurers continue to walk onwards through endless sheets of snow and ice, "Oh fuck!" Andrew quickly swipes through his inventory and throws a Hot Pill into his mouth.
"What happened?" Wundah chews his pill.
"Nice! Hehe." AvatarPyro chews his pill.
"Around sixteen hours." Wundah counts with his fingers.
"Ah damn, around thirteen days in snow or extreme heat." AvatarPyro counts with his hands.

"We should pick up the pace." Wundah begins to jog.
"Yeah fuck that." Andrew jogs with him.
They jog at a steady pace, "So what's the plan if we get attacked by PK Adventurers?" AvatarPyro asks, trying to catch his breath.
"We fuck them up." Andrew says coldly.
"Yeah that sounds like a plan, oh shit cliff!" Wundah holds his arms out.
The three Adventurers stop in their tracks, snow falls down below, disappearing into the clouds. Andrew peers over the edge, the cliff is high up, they can't see the bottom, "Hmm... I wonder if there's fall damage." Andrew puts a Health Pill in his mouth, "Only one way to find out."
Andrew leaps over the edge, Wundah and AvatarPyro right behind him, they soar downward, picking up speed. They get closer and closer to the ground, "Fuck this!" Andrew throws his Hammer at the floor, while Wundah and AvatarPyro shove their swords into the ice wall. They slowly reach the floor as Andrew holds onto AvatarPyro's feet, "Ah that was close!" He yells, looking for his hammer.
"No way!" Wundah pulls his broken sword out of the wall and points at Andrew's broken shattered hammer.
"Fuck! Ah you too!" Andrew points at AvatarPyro's broken sword.
"Dammit!" AvatarPyro picks up bits and throws them back on the floor.
"Time for crafting?" Wundah suggests.
"Sounds good." Andrew chuckles as they sit down and go through their inventory.
AvatarPyro holds his new sword in his hands, it has five vicious spikes along the sword and one massive claw-like blade at the edge. Made out of tough ores, it's all black, "Dude that looks vicious!" Wundah yells, flipping through his inventory. The sword has fire elemental damage.
"Thanks!" AvatarPyro runs his finger along the edges.

"Yes!" Wundah screams, his new sword made from Neza parts, a sleep elemental katana.
"Hell yeah that's cool as fuck!" Andrew holds his new hammer high in the air.
"No way are you serious!" AvatarPyro is holding his stomach, rolling in the snow at the sight of it.
"Dude no! That's great!" Wundah has the biggest smile on his face.
"Behold! A War Hammer created from the massive dong of an Akazo! With fire damage I will smash my enemies with this dildo hammer that is harder than steel!" Andrew chuckles, swinging his hammer around.
"I feel sorry for the next monster that faces us, honestly." Wundah straps his sword to his back.
"True shit." Andrew sheathes his hammer.
"This should be fun." AvatarPyro points to a clearing in the distance.
"Looks like the next battle is the Uza." Wundah bumps their fists.
"Same spot as in the game." AvatarPyro exhales.
"Oh fuck yeah!" Andrew stretches his legs.
"That's a good idea." AvatarPyro and Wundah begin to stretch.
"Well let's do this!" Andrew bumps their fists.
"We got this!" Wundah begins walking.
"I got the tail." AvatarPyro swings his sword around to get used to the weight.
"Let's do this!" Andrew rushes into battle with his dildo hammer.
The area is widespread and full of ice and snow, the massive body of the hammerhead shark dragon Uza towers in the center. Wundah gracefully sprints up the Uza’s leg while tossing a Flashbang near its face. AvatarPyro sprints around and crashes down, cutting off the tail. Andrew is charging, the energy building up, he swings and a hole explodes through the body, sending it flying into an ice wall. Items pop up in their inventory.
"Let's hurry." Wundah jogs onward.
"Fuck yeah!" Andrew puts his hammer away as they run.
"We are Gods!" AvatarPyro chuckles as he begins to jog ahead, but little do our Adventurers know, that in the animal kingdom, sometimes the Adventurers become the hunted. On a cliff above, watching our Adventurers is an Elder Dragon. The black red eyed demon dragon Kuzaza soars high above. It flaps its wings, creating a blizzard filled with red lightning.
"Ah fuck!" Wundah screams, drawing his sword.
"Fuck!" Andrew begins to charge.
"Duck now!" AvatarPyro digs his blade into the floor as a tornado of ice rushes towards the Adventurers. He blocks as the Kuzaza charges, knocking him back. The Kuzaza blasts balls of red lightning at AvatarPyro and Wundah, who dive away from them. Andrew crashes down from the sky and blows its head into ash. The body falls onto the floor as items pop up in their inventory.
"Let's hurry!" Wundah begins to jog again.
"Fuck yeah!" Andrew jogs as well.
"We're too good!" AvatarPyro is right behind them.
Ice turns into rocks, and the temperature steadily rises.

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]

To live is to Dream (LitRPG; First Draft)
A new Power has come into the World and seeks to change it. Being on the last dregs of sanity and full of alcohol Daniel West receives an opportunity to seek revenge. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To live is to Dream is the second book of the Just a Dream series. You do not have to read the first to enjoy the second, but there will be recurring characters along the line. The first book features Mir, a man that dislikes how his current world appears and hence wants to change it. The second book will feature other people and how the changes implemented by Mir affect their lives. For those interested in my first book, it's easy to find it. Just beware that with the first book, it was my first time writing and there are a lot of grammar errors despite lots of editing, at least at the beginning of the book. The cover was done by Lmarief. I had requested something bizarre and she delivered. I have even used it as part of the story since her interpretation of my imagination was a bit different. Still, I loved it. As a thank you gift, I posted a link to her profile here for others who want a unique cover. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/220043
