《The Nonpareil of Resh》Excerpt from Gwyn's Journal - Netzians
Advertisement
Moving on to Netzians, they are one of the more boring-looking species I have encountered. That is due to the simple fact they are humans that somehow in the past have ended up on Resh. Though, I have no idea where they came from or when they came here. My guess is that it was quite a long time ago.
They seem to be the ones that brought English to this planet. Apparently, at the time of the Netzian arrival, there were debates for a common language among the other four major species on Resh. A long war had just ended, and they were trying to push for a new era of peace. From what I understand, each species has a classic language and did not want to part with it in favor of a group that they had previously been at war with. They ultimately decided to take the newcomers' language, as it had no history on Resh, and each species got to choose several words from their own language to incorporate into it. It seems it was also easy for the natives on Resh to learn.
Back to the Netzians themselves. I omitted a detail before that is probably essential. While they are normal humans from earth, they came in a small number. Due to that, there has been mixing with other species on Resh over the years, and many Netzians hold features that are no longer human. Some changes can be as sudden as less natural hair colors becoming natural, but there can also be changes in ears or being covered in scales.

The Boss of Beginner’s Village
Accardi, the World of Chaos and Glory. A well-known virtual reality game, where players could enjoy a new life as magical beings, powerful heroes or even despicable villains. The game’s programmer, our protagonist, accepted a famous web novelist’s proposal and that’s how the story ‘The Rising of the Magic Swordsman’ was born. Counting with Accardi’s finely made world settings and the writer’s creativity on its peak, both the game and the novel became tremendously popular. But before our protagonist could enjoy this popularity or plot the writer’s murder for distorting the world of Accardi, she died. And then she reincarnated, in a place incredibly similar to her own game’s world. Well, it wasn’t. She didn’t know what god she offended, but the world she reincarnated into wasn’t her Accardi, but the novel’s. To make it even worse, she wasn’t just a mob character, but actually a future member of the protagonist’s harem. And although everything was ridiculously troublesome, there was one thing she couldn’t accept: the fact that in the novel, her precious beginner’s village would be destroyed! Since one of the game’s gold rules was ‘no death at the beginner’s village’, our protagonist takes her pride as the game’s programmer to protect the village! Along the way, several individuals join her to help her goal. But as time passes by, they realized... this lass isn’t normal, is she. So, welcome to Doveshire! Hmm? Are you a powerful master traveling around? An highly dangerous wanted criminal? This kingdom’s King? Well, it doesn’t matter! You are all welcome at our humble village! However... you know, right? No ~ troubles ~ allowed~ *everbody shivers* Expect chapters usually once a week, Saturday or Sunday.

The Drifting World

Follow Noah as he builds his character Chemistree, a Treant rogue, and uncovers the mysteries of a destroyed virtual world. Expect guilds, dungeons, skills, stats, and, levels as he progresses through the main story of the game and tries to uncover what secrets the game has to hide. Okay, stereotypical introduction over. This is my first time trying to release a story I've written, so feedback is welcome. The premise is nothing special, I just want to do it well. A lot of similar stories I've read make me ask "what kind of game would work like that?" Sometimes believable gameplay elements give way for a more immersive story, but I hope to make that as balanced as possible rather than going for cheap thrills. Well, I guess we will just see how this goes.
