《The Legacy of Gilgamesh》Chapter 5
Advertisement
Although he created the world, it is empty of movement, with nothing containing life, not even microbes. A world without life is an incomplete world because the ultimate goal of creation is life, and that's what he believed. With life, the world will be colourful. After recognizing the problem, Rico promptly thought of a solution. Which was to get seeds and then place them in his world. As well as animals and insects. And for the sea, the plants and fish will not be a problem considering the costs of fish eggs and his savings. Following this plan, Rico bought tons of plant seeds online. Including flowers and trees from all over the world. From the famous cherry blossom of the east to the age-old coconut tree. Which cause him to be busy up and down for seven days. Although Rico has worked remarkably beyond his limits, just to make the world become colourful and leave the stage of desolation. It stood apparent that this was, awfully hard, a project from the start. Since he lacks experience in literally being a God. After he poured the seeds all around the continent and seas. After a while, some of these seeds had just grown sprouts. It would take at least months or even decades for them to grow up fully. To reach a large enough quantity to achieve world domination would take centuries. Even compared to the size of his world, which is double the size of the earth. The number of plants now will only make the world have a tiny green spot from space. His original goal of cramming the whole world with life was not looking too great. If this trend continues, even if Rico exhausts his entire life farming the seed, he can at most give a mark of life to an area of tens of kilometres in diameter. Faced with this situation, Rico suddenly thought deeply, since he can set the rules of this world, why can't he speed up the time so that earth day will be countless years inside my world. In this way, the world inside can quickly become vibrant and spread on its own. Rico tried it first and found that his idea was feasible. However, doing so would consume a lot of Origin. But the level of consumption was still within Rico acceptable range as the input of Origin will be more than the consumption. Now that the idea was feasible. Rico mind was soothed. He then desperately started speeding up the time flow of the disc world from one-hundred to one, to one-thousand to one and even finally to ten-thousand to one and was at the end of his reasonable range. In this way, it is equivalent to three days outside, and nearly a hundred years will have pass inside. Initially, Rico wanted it to be faster. But he learned that if he continued to accelerate, the consumption of Origin would double and would be reaching the point where he will be at a loss. So the final time ratio between the disc world and the earth world is ten thousand to one. One day is equivalent to more than 30 years in my world, and so almost a year has passed in the past hour after going back home. However, the disc world did not become as vibrant as Rico thought. Most of the seeds thrown in before had died. Only an insignificant part of them survived. And the forms of these surviving plants are not the same as on the earth ''They must have mutated to survive.'' Rico thought. At first, Rico didn't know the reason for their death. After studying them for a while, Rico learned and concluded that the cause of death is because the ecosystem within was not perfect for the seeds. So Rico then started to places these seeds in their respectful climate. But even so, half of the seed did not make it. Because some plants need insects to pollinate or animals for the plant seeds to scatter. But these creatures have not been placed in the disc world. After understanding the reason, Rico quickly figured it out. The plan is to place some kinds of rare plant seeds. That can survive in the harsh climate. And then, also set some small animals that he bought after spending much of his savings. First herbivores, then carnivores.

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend

AOT: Boats
I know, the title doesnt seem to make sense. Its an acronym. For what? Hm. T means True. Up to you otherwise. Oh, right. The acronym actually does have an impact on one of the themes of the "story". At the same time I mixed it up with a reference to the original plan for this when I started, so yay. A double. Well, actually, a triple. Again, up to you. I should also mention that, as the rhyme that starts the story probably tells you, its gonna get kinda disturbing. All kinds of disturbing. Just to let you know.
