Chapter 3: This isn’t planet Earth ...Right?
Just Like the black hole suddenly devoured me, it spits me out suddenly.
And because I wasn't ready for that, I lost all my balance and fell horribly to the ground.
Fortunately for me, the floor was not solid or rocky, but rather sandy. But that doesn't mean that I am completely fine. There were like two large tablespoons of sand inside my mouth.
Dammit, I spit the sand out.
The pain was still pulsating inside my body like intermittent pulses through my bones and muscles but fortunately it started to fade away.
I looked at the place around me. It was nighttime, however, I could see a sand beach stretching for three kilometers. I could also hear the sound of the sea waves.
I looked at the dark sky for a long time, it wasn't that completely dark. I saw green and blue lights dancing on the horizon. These must be the northern lights.
My head started to boil with a lot of ideas and facts.
"Damn, this damned ring. Where did it send me?"
"Are you a fool, Khaled? It teleported you instantly, like Harry Potter ... You did an instant teleport. Now think well ... what were you thinking of before your teleportation?!"
If this ring works like magical instant transmission tools, then there is no doubt that it will transport me to a place I know or a place I was thinking of. Mmm, I was thinking about making a cup of coffee, watching my sassy girl, and nothing else. But wait, In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire there were magical teleport tools pre-defined. When Harry Potter and the Wesley family went to watch the final of the Quidditch World Cup tournament ... damn ... does that mean that damned ring took me to a pre-determined location. "
"Don't panic. I catch your breath. Think carefully. Try to get to know this place with your geographical knowledge."

"That's right, now shut up and leave me alone."
I took the advice of the crazy voice inside my head and began to examine the place around me.
Now, here are the facts of this place.
First: You are standing on a beach.
Second, you can see the northern lights.
The logical conclusion: You are in one of the European countries which enables you to see the Northern lights?
So, the important question: What are those European countries that enable you to see the northern lights??
Answer: Fuck me. I don't know. Maybe New Zealand or Iceland. I think one of my friends have traveled to New Zealand before to see the northern lights.
Well, I have decided. It doesn't matter where I am now. The most important thing is to find someone to show me the way to my country's embassy so they can take me back to my warm little home.
Suddenly, I realized the horrific truth which made me swear for at least a full ten minutes.
Damn. Damn. Damn.
At the time of COVID-19 era, all flights were suspended. Now I have no official papers, and no money, so I could survive here.
that's Damn Good. My wonderful good luck is now fully functional. The jinx touch that haunts me since my childhood has achieved its last goal. I will die in a strange land without anyone knowing me.
I wonder. In this time when everyone fighting for a roll of toilet paper, keeping a safe distance from each other. Is there anyone who will sympathize with me and take me in?
I sighed a long sigh. then I sat on the sandy ground, and I looked at the northern lights.
If you are in a bad situation. Try to look at the bright side of the moon. This is what I decided to do.
Where is the moon? It is supposed to be full moon these days.
Ah there it is. Hey. Why is there another moon? Damn, there's a third moon too.

I got up on my foot, terrified from what I just saw, I searched the sky carefully.
One, two, three, four, five, damn it, six, seven, damn it, eig...
But suddenly a sound of a strong fall in the sea waters interrupted my train of thoughts. I looked to the water's edge and found a fat man fighting the nighty waves. I was sure no one was in the water before. I thought, he must have teleported like me. but why he fell in the water?
Then, Does this matter? Right now, there are at least eight moons in the sky? Where the hell am I? It doesn't make sense that I am still on Earth. This isn't planet Earth ...Right?
the fat man screaming waked me up from my thoughts as he grappled with the waves. He seemed to be unable to swim and was trying to ask me for help.
I shook my shoulder and sighed. Fortunately he is close to the beach otherwise I would have left him to die without being able to save him.
I don't mean that I'm a cold blood person, but to put it simply, I am like that wretched fatty .. I am not good at swimming too.
I ran in a hurry towards the water's edge, I tried to walk as fast as possible resisting the water and the waves. Finally, I reached him.
I tried to help him as best I could, I started pulling him hard towards the beach, he was saying vague words from which I didn't understand anything of it. His eyes were terrified, and his face was paled. I thought he was afraid that I would leave him because I couldn't understand him. I smiled in an attempt to reassure him .. Don't worry, fatty... I won't leave you, I will save you.
Finally, we reached the sandy beach. I sat down immediately, trying to catch my breath from the intensity of my effort. He was very fat.
I looked at the strange man. I nodded, endorsing the idea in my mind. He is very similar to Homer Simpson.
Suddenly, the fat man tried to get up on his feet, and when he failed to do so, he decided to crawl on his knees for two meters, at which point I noticed for the first time that there was a thread of blood coming from a deep wound on his back. Why is he injured? Did he fall on a rock hidden under the water?
Suddenly the fat man stopped crawling, then extended his hand into one of his pockets, and took out a small box, within it at least a dozen rings. Then he pulled a ring from among them, put it in his finger, and a few seconds later, a glass of bottle appeared from nowhere in his palm. It was filled with a bright reddish liquid. The fat man opened the vial, and drink the bloody liquid voraciously.
Suddenly, something totally magical happened... His wound began to heal and recover.
Damn, what is this?
No way! Does it make sense that these are magic rings where tons of things are stored within? Does this bottle contain a healing potion?!
But in novels and films, these rings are not so cheap to the point that fat man could own dozens of them!
Never mind, I saved a super-rich man. And surely he will reward me for that.
But the most important thing .. I have to be careful. fuck me. I shouldn't forget that awful fact... I am no longer on earth. This place will never be safe for me.
And that damn ring, which turned into a damned tattoo. I have to find a way to make it send me back home.

LIlith's Firstborn
The legend says that the Forbidden Fruit made the first two humans – Adam and Eve – intelligent, but what if it was the other way around? What if the Forbidden Fruit took most of their humility, their intelligence, their kindness, etc. away and turn them into the discriminating, angry, and hateful humans that they are? What if the only way to turn back into their former selves was to lead a good life on Earth to cleanse their souls? The legend also says that Lilith was a demoness who fled from Heaven and was granted mercy when she showed humility and proved that her soul was still worthy of saving despite all her wrongdoings. What if, after centuries of sinning, Lilith finally found her way back to kindness? What if God forgave Lilith for her crimes? What if she gave birth to a baby after she had repented? And what if that baby is the only human soul in existence that isn’t tainted by the Forbidden Fruit or her past sins? Tallitanya of Lilith inherited her mother’s immortality and grew up at a rate much slower than an average human so she had witnessed the rise and fall of empires even though she is physically and mentally 21 years old. She was born on Earth, but she moved to Heaven when she was physically 5 years old and didn’t return until she was 18 years old. She was tasked, by God himself, to guard over the Forbidden Tree which had since been replanted on an isolated island on Earth. She loves that job, and she loves that she was given direct instructions instead of having to figure out what God’s so-called ‘mysterious plans’ for her was. Centuries went by. Tallitanya is 21 years old when the Final Judgement is nigh. As an immortal who has yet to have a real affiliation with Heaven or Hell, Tallitanya has received a personal invitation from the Antichrist who wishes to recruit Tallitanya. Heaven also sends its angel – Michael – to inform Tallitanya that as a human, her soul would also be judged by God. She was ordered to leave her post as the Forbidden Tree’s guardian so that she could get to know the other humans before she makes an actual decision about who she wants to align herself with. The second she steps out of the island, it disappears. Turns out, her message from God was faked, and so was her mission. The devil had tricked her, and as the guardian of the Forbidden Tree, she must recover the tree and the island, or humanity will perish within the year.

The Dreamside Road
Five years after the world fell into chaos, a treasure of artifacts is up for grabs. The relics of the Dreamside Road offer a power that could help rebuild or annihilate what remains. Orson Gregory is an adventurer for hire, but hunts this treasure for answers, not glory. Enoa Cloud’s late aunt helped hide the Dreamside Road, but following in her aunt’s supernatural tradition offers her as much peril as power. Together, Orson and Enoa battle a magic-obsessed militia, clash with a host of rivals, and face constant adventure on their journey to find the Dreamside Road. *Updates Monday and Friday The Dreamside Road is now on TopWebFiction! Vote so people know this exists. _____________________________________ NOTE: The Progression tag applies specifically to Enoa. Also, fair warning, that element doesn't enter the story until she begins her studies. Content: Main characters range in age from teenagers to people in their thirties and older, but it will not contain gratuitous violence or explicit sexual content. It also won’t shy away from implication, anything to make this story and its world feel more real. Characters will freely allude to potentially triggering topics, including living with a disability, facing terminal illness, coping with trauma, surviving societal destabilization, and the consequences of bigotry. At its most intense, the Dreamside Road is a hard PG-13. Worldbuilding: This is not a story with a lot of early exposition scenes, conveniently explaining ‘magic systems’ and political dynamics. Readers will learn, progressively, as the characters do. This story/world has a ‘magic system’, or rather, a set of systems, but the effort to quantify and understand the truth of the setting plays a role in the backstory, as well as in some character motivations. In that same vein, not every character has a firm grasp on the nature of their world, and not every piece of dialog from every character should be taken as entirely truthful Worldbuilding. Also, this isn't the softest Sci-fi. There are at least some basic explanations given for various elements, but Royal Road does not give me a spectrum to choose from. Given the choice between hard and soft, let's just say The Dreamside Road won't be cited in any college Physics papers. Setting and Theme: The Dreamside Road walks the line between fantasy and science fiction and deals with finding one’s place in a changing world. Many of the characters in this story are United States natives and the story begins in the United States, my homeland. However, knowledge or interest in this country is not necessary to understand the story, especially as it progresses. Also, as this is a novel that deals with societal collapse and while that damage may be widespread, in story, I don’t want to overstep and critique the culture of others’ unless I have particular knowledge in a given area. Ultimately, the Dreamside Road is American in the same way Harry Potter is English, fantasies that do not have a full secondary world, but with enough original elements to fully diverge the setting from our the real world.
