《Blockage of Writing》The Game of Death
Advertisement
There is endless death around every corner. Countless innocent lives lost amongst the deaths of the guilty. It is quite a shame, but this is the game they play. The game everybody plays. It is a game of death. You are pitted against millions of thousands of people, all as equally worthless as you. The King controls us all with his chains, controlling us, his mindless broken pawns. His toxins boil beneath our very skin; he controls us, forcing us to play this game of death for his own amusement. We desperately try to break free but we cannot, we will not. We are under his spell. We will always play this game of killers.as you lay there on the hard, cold, unforgiving ground, in a puddle of your own crimson blood, spilling away from your body. You clutch your slowly beating heart in your hands. Stare at it all you want, but we all know as soon as that fleshy, red muscle beats its last beat, it will be the end of you. You are connected to it after all, as we are connected to ours, as we are connected to our King. We pawns are not the only thing that is bound to him. The four horsemen are also bound to our King. Everything is bound to him. This is the way things have always been for as long as we know. The leader and those who are led. This cruel game our King makes us play it puts us on equal terms, stripping away our personalities. We are all the same. So in the end, there are no innocents, there are no guilty. Death is still at every corner. We can hear the Devil laughing in pleasure along with our King. The God of Death, Thanatos, reaping our souls like he should, but he now does it in amusement. Only those who die in this game of death are set free. Those who fill the halls of the dead are no longer bound. Those who are dead can never be bound, nor can they come back to life. You hear the shouts of the other pawns fighting around you, in this game of death. More blood and death will follow. So, as you lay there bleeding, holding onto the last sparkle of your pathetic life that anchors you to this wretched, cruel and unforgiving world, do you feel scared? Do you tremble in fear? Do you feel like this world has given you nothing but pain and misery? This is no utopia, but also this is not a dystopia.This world means nothing, but only death for our King. The King rules all after all. His word is law, his actions are law, and his breath is law. He is the law, and there is nothing we can do to free ourselves. After all, this world is the void of nothingness. This is the Game of Death. The Game of Death that we all play.

Flynn was a normal college student with a normal routine. Wake up, go to school, come home, do homework, laze around until midnight, lay in bed trying not to let the existential dread of inevitable death set it, and go to sleep. Completely normal stuff, really. That is until he mysteriously wakes up in a space between dimensions with game-like prompts demanding he purchase skills before he is sent off to another world. And look at that, it only takes 95% of his skill points to buy the [Eternal Youth] skill, what a steal! Too bad that in this new world there is no civilization, uh… anywhere. ---------------- Hey all, this is just a side project I’m working on in my spare time so I don’t get burned out while writing my more planned out stories.

The Animo Saga
Before history was well-recorded in the world of Ulakam, primordial animal spirits adopted humans, provided protection and developed deep spiritual connections with them. Millennia later, humans now host animal spirits and are split into tribes named for the species they host. Ulakam is slowly being consumed by a decades-long war pitting the main tribes against the smaller tribes and a group of bandits calling themselves "the resistance". Callida Animo was born into this world. Coming from a mixed family of generational soldiers, Callida joined the family business at a young age. In her words, she was practically bred, born, and raised to be a soldier. And she's good at what she does... which inevitably attracts attention that makes her unambitious self extremely uncomfortable. Love, loss, influence and growth. This is her story. Written episodically, this story focuses on relationships and character growth through a series of mini-arcs that connect to make a greater whole. (Honestly, the story would lend itself well to a TV series.) "Episodes" range from 3-7 chapters (at least so far), and average about 4 or 5 chapters. Author's note: I'm always thrilled to receive comments, follows, ratings/reviews, messages.... All forms of feedback are welcome and encouraged. However, I have no interest in begging readers for more engagement to get better visibility. I tried that with my last story and found the game soul-sucking. So! This constitutes my only self-promotion request. If you are reading this story, let me know what you think! I love engaging with my readers. We'll see if growing the readership organically is even possible. Thank you! 😘 Release schedule: Weekly on Wednesday afternoons
