《The Female Alpha // ✓》C H A P T E R T W E N T Y - O N E | Battle At The Borderline
Advertisement
The new pack would move in in about a week, but I had to have a treaty with them before then.
But I wasn't really in the mood too.
The treaty was going to be in two days and I really didn't feel like going.
After finding out the alpha was mateless I haven't been able to sleep. Which probably wasn't the best idea.
I sighed as I sat my bowl in the sink and Amber, Ronnie, Henry and Bonita walked in.
"What's wrong, Paige?" Amber asked as she ran over and rubbed my back.
"Dude, she's not crying," Bonita states as the walked over and removed her hand.
"Amber's not a dude," Ronnie corrects her.
"Fine! She's I dudette!!" Bonita rectifies, punching him in the side.
"Ow!" He cries, rubbing his rib cage. And within all this time Henry is chilling back and relaxing, watching the show in amusement.
"Guys?"
Still fighting.
"Guys?"
Still quarrelling.
"Guys?" I ask a little louder, but to no avail.
I whistle, interrupting the argument. Everyone looked at me.
"Ssh!!" I hiss, making the shush gesture. "Would you be quiet? It's eight in the morning and people are still asleep!" I say. Fortunately they all stop what they were doing, but then turned their attention to me again.
"Now, where were we?" Henry asks, pushing himself off the counter.
"What's wrong, Paige?" Bonita questions me.
"Nothing, I'm fine," I answer, rubbing my eyes. "I'm just tired,"
"Why are you tired?" Ronnie walks over, making sure I'm okay.
"Because—"
"Alpha! The Shadow Rogues are back! At the south border!" My newest patroller, Ella, cries as she runs into the kitchen. I let out a low warning growl, then stand up.

"Come on, guys," I say as I stalk my way outside.
As my feet touch the grass, I start to run. As I start to run, I start to leap. Once I am in mid-air, I shift into my large, black wolf.
As I land, my paws touch the soft soil and rub against the healthy grass. I stretch and shake out my fur.
It's good to be in control again, May laughs as she starts to run towards the southern border.
It takes me at least ten minutes to reach the battle at the border line. I growl once I see the familiar face of the Shadow Rogues Alpha, Finn Shard.
Let's fight, May says determined. I mentally laugh at her and let her take full control.
It was good to be let out again. If only it hadn't been for this specific reason.
I howled and grabbed the throat of another wolf with red, demon eyes. I bit down hard and heard the satisfying crunch of its neck snapping.
I threw him down to the ground and did the same to another one, and another and another, over and over again until all the rogues were dead.
I joined up with Flame, Lenix, Ruth and Jake, Amber's, Ronnie's, Bonita's and Henry's wolves.
I need to shift back, Paige says, earning a sigh from me.
Okay. I huff, then walk behind a tree and pull out hidden clothes, then give Paige control.
She shifts back into a human, pushing me into the depths of her mind.

Living In The System - A LitRPG with more story, less text boxes
In the ancient echoes upon it’s great boughs, Yggdrasil holds all the knowledge in existence. Indeed, all of creation swings from its immense branches and leaves. The howls that creep through its cavernous spaces were not caused by the wind. No wind could be powerful enough to shake The Tree, yet it rocked. A great battle raged in its dew drops and amongst its roots. A War for control. For knowledge is power, and power is everything. A furtive glance over her shoulder told the hurried goddess that she was not being followed. That was good. What she had just done would be a great risk. Placing a new thread on a world so soon to be destroyed was costly. She would be greatly diminished, but her work was not done yet. In the myriad of infinite worlds, there lies Genia. A starter world, of very little importance. It is where she will find her champion. Killian never got the chance to see the world. Yet he is given opportunity. Opportunity not just to see the world, but to change it... to change all of creation. There are many stories to tell upon the Tree of Yggdrasil, where all of creation hangs from its branches. The power of destiny fuels all, but destiny is fickle. He can only pray that things will go well. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Luck And Chronomancy
Time Magic is the best magic as everyone knows, although there are lots of unique Talents in the world. Most people only remember Haste because it is hard to get to higher Phases of Chronomancy. That is still enough to make the Talent iconic. A lucky enough Aleatory Talent can position you for greatness or leave you languishing in obscurity. The only true equality in the world is when that glowing message pops up at 8 years old. Even if it doesn't activate until you are an adult at 16 you still know. Sure you can find a new dungeon spawn and get another chance at a rare Talent, even this one, but you have to already be ready to delve into the *Far Wilds*, which is far easier with wealth or family power. This is the story of where my good fortune took me and the difference it made, even among a party of 7 others including an Arcanist. It is a journey of magic and monsters but also math, which some think is actually worse. Luckily I was born with Intelligence and Focus as my personal traits, and my parents were scholars. Of course Chronomancy can also be a frontline combat talent. Versitility well beyond other Elder Talents like Gravity, Abstraction, or Arcana. Might could have worked for me, too. I also met a runaway princess. All the best adventures have a princess. She hated being a noble and we didn't get married but it still counts. Besides she really filled out our front line. All that Leadership training came in handy. I still don't know where she's from. Who cares? How well Haste goes with giant hammers is what's important. I never learned much about anyone in the party, except the one I grew up with. I'm not a people person. I just wanted to optimize dungeon clearing time. *******Story Details******* No romance, politics, or traumatizing content, slice of life, or even dialogue. 1st person narration, like a guide/adventure log. 2000-7000 words a day, maybe 40-60% rpgish combat log with some reasoning on combat decisions, with the rest character Talent discussion and progression stuff. 8 person party with a decent variety in roles. Party members usually have 2 primary functions. Told from the support/control Chronomancer's perspective. Each party member will have 6 Basic/Background Traits, then 3 actual Talents with abilities. Capstone from their Educational Institution, Arbritrary as a gift from the temples, and Aleatory which is decided at birth, revealed at 8, and activated after adulthood at 16. Aleatory Traits ignore requirements and are random why is why they are so important. They'll gain new Talents from finding Dungeons to consume in the *Wilds*. Mature dungeons in cities can provide *Challenges* to raise the Phase of a Talent, up to 3 times from 1 to 4. Each character will get to roughly 8 non-Trait Talents. Attributes come exclusive from Talents, are required by Talents, and provide various effects as well. I designed about 220 Talents with abilities, 4 in each of 4 phases. "Traits" are just Attribute stuff. I'm not sure how many will be detailed in the story, more than 100 for sure. I used Talents because I want to be free of the legacy of tabletop. Half those rules are just because of the limitations inherent in a pre-computer ttrpg. This story mostly uses combat Talents, although like 1/3 of the 220 are for crafting and other society and economy stuff. If you really wanted to be a Thief you might take Intuition, Awarness, and Might for Basic Traits and Deftness, Manipulation, and Trickery for Family/Education. Then you'd pick Acrobatics, and Climbing for Educational Capstone and Arbitrary traits. You Aleatory Trait might be Shadow(Light/Dark) Magic, Umbramancy. A Bard might swap Dexterity for Charisma, Music for Acrobatics, and have gotten Illusion(Shadow/Sound(Air/Force)) for their Aleatory Trait.

Had it not been for a mysterious old man, chaos would have ensued further.
