《Thog: The barbarian》Chapter 2
Advertisement
Tracy went strait to the adventurer's guild. Not that he was all that eager to turn in the quest, but because Thog just skipped inside, the kind receptionist is quite patient with Thog, but he was not willing to chance getting kicked out of another frequented institution.
Thog having shipped in to the guild as he often did, waltzed strait up to the counter. And by strait to the counter, I meant that he literally skipped strait up to the counter ignoring anything that might be in the way as if they didn't exist.
The adventurers who just got trampled were about to say something to him, but their boss stood in there way.
I would suggest you ignore what just happened, I am also not that happy about being trampled on but this is Thog we are talking about, and I really don't want to see more of my underlings thrown through a wall again. -Adventurer's boss
The adventurers noticing the name Thog started sweating cold drops of fear. They had heard stories about Thog, and if any one of the numerous stories they had heard of the half-ork that had tried to drag many 10' tall frightened dragons in to the guild that was about the same size as the guild were true, it was best to stay out of the way.
Thog greats pretty desk lady! Look, Thog has new pets! -Thog
The desk lady smiles, at first she was quite scared by the half-ork, especially since the first time he had a dragon in tow, but as it turns Thog was just like a giant green child.
Good evening Thog, and what sort of pet are you going to show me today? -Pretty desk lady
Thog has baby goblins! This one is Gobgob, and this one is Hobgob! -Thog

Thog showed the pretty desk lady each frightened goblin in turn.
Oh! So does this mean you have completed your task? -Pretty desk lady
She looks at the goblin children, they were kind of ugly but that made them a bit endearing. She did not personally like goblins, but it was better then most of the things he had tried to show her. Especially the goul that he had previously shown her, the goul was covered in maggots, and was chewing on Thog's arm, not that he seemed to mind it.
That's great Thog, by the way, where is Tracy? -Pretty desk lady
Thog looks around, then panics a bit. Thog has left his best buddy behind. Just as he was about to run out the door, a very tired elven paladin walks in the door wheezing a bit.
Thog! For the lords sake, please stop running off! -Tracy
Tracy steps up to the counter, and bows to the pretty desk lady. The pretty desk lady blushes a bit, she had quite a large crush on the paladin, not that Tracy seemed to notice.
"Good evening Lena, I hope Thog has not bothered you overly much?"-Tracy
"N... No! Thog has been perfectly fine!- Lena
"Yes! Thog just show pretty desk lady Hobgob, and Gobgob!" -Thog
Thog raises the baby goblins in turn, who seem quite frightened, and out of sorts as you would expect from two children who have seen their family tossed aside and been kidnapped by someone able to bash their heads in on accident.
"Yes yes, in any case, might I accept payment for this job soon, as I am quite tired and wish to put up for the night" -Tracy
"Yes, right away! Umm....." -Lena
Lena fidgets a bit.
"Yes, what is it?" -Tracy

"Oh... Um the guild leader wishes to speak with you, I was told to tell you whenever you got back" -Lena
Tracy sighs once again, this could only mean more trouble, potentially from Thog wrecking something once again. Tracy gives Thog a dirty look, who smiles brightly in return.
"Oh, very well. If I might enquire what this is about" -Tracy
"I believe he said something about a mission only you could handle" -Lena
At this, Tracy sighed once more, usually these missions led to dangerous monsters, that Thog seems quite fond of. The last mission was against a lich that Thog decided to keep. That one lasted a month of discomfort for both the paladin, and the lich. At some point the lich begged Tracy to free him, and in exchange he would mend his ways, the lich currently works as a teacher at the local orphanage.
"Yes, I will go see him, but do you think it could wait a day, I am after all quite tired." -Tracy
"Yes, he had said that it was not that urgent, in any case here is your reward for the elite goblin subjugation!" -Lena
Tracy accepted the bag, which was heavy with gold
"Yes, well I will take my leave then, Thog is getting impatient." -Tracy
Thog at that time was hugging and stroking a goblin baby much to its dismay, Hobgob if Tracy recalls correctly, though he can't tell them apart that well.
As they leave the guild, one could here many a sigh of relief.
"Come back soon!" -Lena

If you find it anywhere else, please reach out to me. Thank you. Old cover provided by Asviloka. She's also does werds!Current cover provided by Fuyudust. Old synopsis "Hi, my name is Alexis," I say into the camera, as I attempt to calm my nerves."And I'm Sab," I hear my best friend add from beside me. It's good to have her there, it's been far too long."I'm trying to focus," I tell Sab as I look into the camera. Will anyone even watch this?"What, just cause I didn't get sent to another world, where magic and dragons are real, I don't get to be a part of this?" she questions me. I can hear the hurt in her voice. I wish she'd been there. Things might have been... different. I can't believe I thought it was a game. If it had been, she'd have been the better choice."I said I was sorry. It's not like I knew I was going to be kidnapped by the system," I lamely apologize. She deserves more, but this is important."Coming soon, to an earth near you," she might be making light, but I can hear the fear in her voice."It's not funny Sab. It really is coming," I can't help but reply to her words, even though I know she didn't mean it."Come on Lexi, it's a little funny." she tries while chuckling nervously."Sigh. Look, can we just get back to telling them?" I ask, pointing at the laptop."Sure, but first you should show them some magic," Sab declares while waving her arms around."I told you. It's not that simple. I only showed you because you could tell it wasn't fake. They'd just think it was special effects," or come after me to try to lock me in a basement."Yeah, well they're not going to believe you anyway. It sounds pretty crazy, even to me. And I've seen what you can do," she proclaims. I didn't think it was that special, but she was super impressed by my magical abilities."Maybe, but I have to try. We don't have much time," I state as I stop the recording, before starting a new one."Hello, my name is Alexis," I pronounce, projecting as much confidence as I can at the little camera."Remember, the world ends on a Tuesday."

A pulse from those cracks altered the population; some people's biology changed while others received magical and supernatural powers. After the chaos, the political drama ensued, followed by the discovery of portals that brought deadly creatures. They called this event "The Oscillation" and it changed Rachel's life forever. Note: I've received some feedback that people don't like the foul language. This also included my mother, she wanted me to make a cleaner version for her.
