《Unfinished Works》“Dark Confinement”
Advertisement
You wake up in an unnamed cell, your head aches, bad. You look around at your surroundings, they’re bland. A toilet, a sink,a prison-like bed, and a table that protrudes out of the wall. The air feels moist and smells like vomit, you gag as you breathe in, trying to make sense of it all. Your thoughts are pushed aside as a sound echoes from down the hall, you barely heard it. You try to get yourself off of the bed, but fail because you’re fatigued. You take a moment to think, but then that opens up a whole lot of questions to you that you weren’t thinking of before. Where am I? What did I do to end up here?.. Who am I?
You start to panic because you realise that you forgot who you are, you start thinking of past memories, but none come. You close your eyes, just wanting this to be a bad dream..
The next time you open them you’re still in that same cell, with the same toilet, sink, and bed. But this time, you see a paper on the desk next to you. You go to pick it up without even realising that you can move around without feeling like there’s lead in your veins, once it’s in your hands you inspect it. It has a logo in the top right corner, it looks like a circle with three prongs sticking out and going towards the center of the circle. Some words next to it are also visible “Secure. Contain. Protect.”
After trying to remember if you seen the logo anywhere else you notice that there’s a lot of other writing on the paper itself. There’s a big box on the bottom, It’s blacked out so you don’t understand what it means, but you see a description above.

There was a lot more information along with it, but you assume that it was a description of you. Now that you’ve woken up, you take another look around, nothing seemed to have changed. The door, still barely ajar, also has the exact same logo as the paper you just read. The circle with the three prongs going into the center. You stand up straight, first looking at the toilet. It’s clean, and then the faucet, also rather clean. Upon looking further at the table, you find a small 9V battery, you tuck it into your pants pocket and prepare to go out into the hallway.
You pry the door open and it opens with a rough sound of metal against metal, you worry about the amount of sound it makes but you do it anyway. After opening it you see where you are, a hallway with identical rooms going up and down the corridor. You look down each way and see a door on one side open at the end of the hallway. You start walking down it but as you start walking you hear a faint noise of a door opening, You hide in one of the empty rooms (presumably owned by someone exactly like you) and wait for the sound to stop. It does, and you begin to walk down the corridor, trying to figure out where you are.
After arriving at the doorway, you look around inside of the room, it’s big, and has three identical doors. You assume that they all lead down different hallways, you pick the door going straight.
Upon entering the doorway you see a door labeled “Armoury”
As you enter you see shelves and shelves of items. You pick up a red card, upon inspecting it you see a “2” on the upper right side, You slide it into your pocket. You also see a 5 dollar bill, you take that too.

That is all that was left in the armoury, you see another door, but it’s locked. You try the keycard and it opens the door. Inside is a wall with monitors, all off. And a button labelled “release” you press it and hear a small door slowly open. Then a screen comes on and you can see a small glass case with a gas mask inside of it. Assuming that that’s all there was inside, you leave the room once more.

Of Life and Light
Home. By definition, such a word means "A place where one lives", but what happens when one is removed from their home by those with greater authority? One would seek out another place to live, of course. Karastak, a Devil King and a Fallen God of a world called Terra, was removed from his world by something greater than himself, and has journeyed to the world of Azzarath by way of Azazel, God King of the Azzarathean Pantheon. Perhaps she performed thusly through pity, charity, or a simple act of kindness with no strings attached. Regardless, he is deposited near a village upon a mountainous range within the world. There, he meets up with his Human family, a grizzled old Templar, a shy Cleric, and an apathetic Mage, that came to take him away from his troubles, but he does not budge. That is, until one of his servants speaks of finding a new home. However, perhaps instead of finding a home, he finds adventure instead? The story within is a Frame Story, which means it is a story within another story. In that this one is being told by three personages, a God King called the Ageless, a Lich King called Brutus, and a Goddess named Sarah. Each of them speaks of the Ageless's past self, one called Karastak, as he journeys onwards throughout the worlds within the Azzarathean Pantheon in search of something more. Special thanks to Ms. Brown from http://www.offbeatworlds.com/ for the cover.

Author here, just wanted to say that if the synopsis did not sound as exciting as I had hoped it would be, try reading the first 10 chapters? I promise it won't be terrible! :) Whoops, forgot to mention, prologues don't count as chapters! If you've read this far, I might as well tell you what I was inspired by! However, this does NOT mean my story will be similiar in any way to the novels/stories/books listed below. By 'inspiration,' I refer to mainly how the characterizations plot devices, dialogue, conflict introduction/resolution, and thought processes are used and introduced in those works of literature. But in a way, you can interpret this list as, "if the author read and was inspired by these novels, then it's possible that we share similiar tastes, so I'll give this story a try." :) -Those Who Aspired to Become Gods: A darker fairy tale novel (My all-time fantasy favorite despite it being unfinished) -Forgotten Conqueror (Second all-time fantasy favorite) -Brandon Sanderson's The Reckoning trilogy (Third all-time fantasy favorite) -Kel Kade's 'King's Dark Tidings' -Brent Week's Night Angel saga -Red Rising trilogy -Infinite Realm: Monsters & Legends -Reborn: Apocalypse -Reborn: Evolving From Nothing -48 Hours a Day -The New World -Creep -Arrogant Young Master Template A Variation 4 -Can't Cure Deceit -Super Minion -Unparalleled -Unbound -Wake of the Ravager -Overgeared -Solo Leveling -The Tutorial Is Too Hard [email protected] -God of Money -A Snake's Life -The Snake Report -The Tower of God -UnOrdinary -Release that Witch!
