《Dream Theater》Chapter 42

The lights were low in the little warehouse. The dog barely stood on his four legs, every part of its body trembling. He tried to reach for his master hand, his balance shifted and he began sliding on the little table.
Pxan hit the tabled furious >
A little man with a long beard placed a hand on his shoulders > he pointed to a metal ring on the dog >
>
The man raised an eyebrow >
Pxan looked down > he paused >
The little man nodded.
While Pxan was going away the man continued to watch him. Pxan didn't know it but he gave that man a lot of information "that is a dangerous man." he had observed him for the past hours, how he moved his hands, what he said, the slight imperfection in his prosthetics and he realized that man would be dead in a few years maybe less, the prosthetics couldn't hold so much. Yet why keeping him alive if that was the case?
After a bit, every job was similar to every other job. The inquisition wasn't exempt from this rule. At least the daily variation of tasks ensures that he wasn't bored. One day you kill a gangster another you retrieve papers from an archive, one day you are an innocent librarian and the other a cold-blooded killer. He didn't know if he liked it.
Regardless of this, he had managed to locate a small archive far from the populated buildings. Which, if data was correct, several files were. Including his.
Entering the archive was really easy, one of the windows was broken and several empty cans lay on the ground. Someone had been here more than once. The whole place was falling apart, the walls were fulls of stains and black spots, the floor wasn't stable and the wood, if that was wood, was collapsing. And to top it all off there was a rat infestation.

Epoch: An NPC's Tale
Epoch is a slow-burn LitRPG/Gamelit novel that tells the story of Luke, later named Lucius—a natural inhabitant of the game-like realm of Elyssia where thousands upon thousands of detached, virtually unkillable entities known as the Players were suddenly introduced right after the dusk of the magnificent Age of Heroes. Shortly after the Players arrived, the balance of power in Elyssia instantly shifted. Kingdoms fell, wars were waged, alliances between races were made, and Lucius, after ten years of training in captivity, found himself being used as a pawn in a prophecy that he had no intention to fulfill. With aspirations and desires of his own, Lucius must find a way to cautiously adapt to the drastic changes in the very foundations of the realm after being sent 300 years into a future that was forever altered by the outcome of the war that his captors had lost and the Players won in a victory that resounded throughout the ages, all for a terrible price. Author's Note As an avid fan of the LitRPG genre myself, I wrote this novel with character progression, heavy Gamelit elements, and some degree of world-building in mind. If you like these, please feel free to give this novel a try. Oh, and the MC is also an NPC, in a sense. And wait, isn't this also an isekai story? Well, it's all a bit complicated to explain here. Maybe you should start reading now?

I have come from earth, through the Abyss and I have lived in the First Realm, in my realm and on the plane of Unrec.

Every time they mention my House, they bless its gods. My House has always been there for them, even against the others. When I then think of them without us, i can only think of death and ruin.
