《Demigods Meet Mortals》Joshua Rashid (Demigods)
Advertisement
Hi, I'm Joshua Rashid, most popular guy in Olympian High School. It might sound cool, but trust me, it's the worst. Ever since the Greek gods revealed themselves, principal Anova seemed to make it her responsibility to teach us all about Greek mythology. And guess what, no teacher here or anyone apparently anywhere knows about Greek mythology, and believe it or not, she hired kids to teach us. Yep, there' actually people my age that are bored enough to be interested in Greek mythology, and their not nerds, either. Their good looking. Very good looking.
Percy Jackson, pitch black messy black hair, sea green eyes you could get lost in, and a swimmers body.
Annabeth Chase, curly blond princess locks, tanned skin, stormy grey eyes that can look right through you, and a slim figure.
Hazel Levesque, curly cinnamon brown hair, bright golden eyes, chocolate skin, and a shy attitude, but she wouldn't hesitate to kick you where the sun don't shine.
Jason Grace, sandy blond hair, electric blue eyes, tanned skin, and a small scar on his upper lip.
Will Solace, light blond hair, pale blue eyes, and a bright smile with teeth worthy of those toothpaste commercials.
Nico Di Angelo, shaggy black hair, eyes that look like swirling pits of what could only be called Tartarus, and pale skin.
Piper McLean, choppy brown hair usually with a feather through a braid, tanned skin, kaleidoscope eyes, and daughter of Tristan McLean, the movie star
Frank Zhang, really built, rather intimidating but is actually quite shy and insecure of his look. Black hair, chestnut brown eyes.
Leo Valdez, messy black hair, light brown eyes, and a hyper elf.
These people seemed to know a lot about Greek mythology, heck, they knew how to speak the language! But this is how they got exposed, and ruined my life while at it.

It was a rainy day and I was sitting at my desk during another lesson of Greek mythology with our 'teachers', when they came in, all smiles. 'Alright, everyone. Today we are going to try some sword fighting! And a friend of ours is coming to help us train-teach you some skills.' Piper said, and we all went to the gym, where Percy and Hazel were standing by a few racks of swords while Frank and Jason were standing near the bleachers.
Will spoke first. 'Okay guys! What we want you to do is to grab a wooden sword each, and make sure they feel right in your hands. Same thing as a pair of glasses, you need the right one.' We all did that and waited for the next instruction, when a gorgeous girl walked in with a glowing black sword, distracting us all. But Piper smiled. 'Katie!' She cried and the two hugged. She must be the friend of theirs, I thought.
'Alright, hello everyone. My name is Katie Gardner, and I'm here to coach you on your sword fighting. I've been training for a few summers at my camp and trained by myself as well before then, so I won't be going easy on you.' She said jokingly.
Leo ran to the center of the front court and smiled. 'Who's going against Gardner first?' He asked, and I raised my hand, I was going to impress Katie by beating her since I did train for four years, which was longer than one summer. Obviously, I was going to win. Leo smirked and motioned for me to step forward.
Katie Gardner sized me up and down before flipping her sword in the air and catching it after swiping her feet under mine and tripping me. I cried out in surprise but quickly regained my composure and slashing my sword at her chest, trying to give her a warning to watch out, but the message didn't seem to be getting through to her. I decided it was about to get serious.

I attacked and fought as hard as I could, but fell to the ground after a direct hit from the flat of Katie's blade.

I woke to sunlight in my face and busy talking, groaning, I sat up and was faced with a guy with curved horns on his head, wait what?
'Joshua Rashid, I'm Grover, and you're at Camp Half-Blood.'

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.

My Dear Alice - A Dark Awakening
He’ll cross a lethal land to bring her back home. But is she willing to be found? Appalachian Wasteland, 2072. Jamie Henderson wants to forget all about his ex-girlfriend Alice. Except this nonviolent fixer has been hired to find her after she went missing in the ongoing AI-controlled war. But his quest through the hostile post-apocalyptic terrain turns deadly when a roadside raider attack sees him captured by a terrifying matriarchal clan. Stranded in dangerous territory, Jamie’s jaw drops when he discovers his ex among their numbers. But with her personality split and scattered, his own survival will depend on reaching through her fragmented mind… Can this pacifist hunter make the truth known before he’s sentenced to death? My Dear Alice is a fast-paced companion story that bridges Seasons 1 and 2 of the gripping Cyber Overture dystopian series. If you like complex character studies, gritty worlds, and shocking twists, then you’ll love D. B. Goodin’s outlander opus. Note: This should be read after Sonorous. This story has been published, but I'm adding it here for Royal Road readers to enjoy.
