《Eternal Requiem》Mezzo | Colorless Palace, Colorful City
Advertisement
I’ve been here for almost a day now, roaming about the large palace, I don’t know what I’m looking for, but I know I would keep thinking about it if I didn’t search here at least once,
Despite being hundreds of years old the palace is still well lit, there aren’t any books for me to go through as paper has long since become a limited resource here, but there are may data server rooms which I had not expected,
(Even so long ago, this kind of technology was common place)
I’ve been to almost every room of once grand palace and they’ve all been stripped bare by the pirates, anything that could be valuable already taken, the place looks more like a palace in construction than a finished one, bland and colorless….
(There’s probably nothing to find here)
But strangely enough, the longer I stay here, the more I remember of this place,
Aberdeeningham Palace this was where the royal Savić family of Britain,
King Abraham Savić the fiftieth of his name, was a well liked leader, he had two children, Princess Elizabeth Savić the twenty fifth of her name, and Noah Savić the twenty first,
The ones whose memories I experience, I can’t see all however, just specific moments,
Like how lively it was in this palace during the annual ball,
I don’t know why I– he, ended up becoming a pirate,
Only remembering brief moments of it, at first he was called 21 Savić the pirate, but after while he became known as the blackmagic dealer for selling taboo tech, everything else from that era is a blank for me
I do remember a little of what happened to Britain, after I became a pirate my sister Elizabeth became the queen, she would serve as the last monarch of Britain before the island went under

I remember hearing the news that my sister had died following the sinking of the country,
I didn’t care,
I was going to die myself and all I was focused on was surviving, I needed magic, I needed to go the first ring,
(Why am I say ‘I’)
This wasn’t me these are someone else’s memories from hundreds of years ago,
Yet I can’t help but think it was me, I can’t help but feel the experiences
(Why do I have these memories?)
……..
……...
*****
Churrrrrnnnnnn
A small speedboat zips across the ocean,
Another day has passed, I’ve already seen MF off, to the third ring
I can hope he doesn’t die, more so that Zinnia, Claude, Amelia everyone I’ve met there is still alive
Although I wouldn’t care if they were dead either…
I still hope they live…
Vwwoooooommn
Up head tall skyscrapers begin to come into view,
(Oceania)
The largest landmass on the second ring, still to small to be considered a continent on it’s own
Oceania is a considered a Super Island and is the capital of the United Countries Alliance,
Also, where the Second family resides,
The sound of people’s voices start to creep into the churning sea spray from my boat, which nears a public beach,
The people pay no heed to my arrival basking in the sunlight or play in sand for the children…
…
Parking my boat near small harbor for speed boats I hop out onto the beach
(I knew it was a good idea to move in a smaller boat)
…..
“Please remain still”
…
....
…..
……
…….
Beep.
“You may proceed”
Even though Oceania seems to be easy to enter by sea, the real borders are the exits to either the beaches or harbors around the super island, they are all protected by things called registry scanners, if you are registered in as a green UCA citizen it means, you are regular, and will be allowed passage,

Red would render you a criminal and would result in immediate detainment action, and no color means are not registered and will be assessed.
Surprisingly I was registered as green
(I don’t the what I have on the chairman but it is proving be beneficial to me)
Exiting the check, I now fully see myself on Oceania,
The city besides being riddled with skyscrapers, is actually not a bad sight,
Then streets are impeccably clean, the general surroundings burst with color, partly from the many billboards of advertisements around the city, the suave selection of cars driving neatly on the roads, and the diversity of people roaming the streets,
Unity City
I read from a billboard as I walk past it, the words fluctuate between the colors of a rainbow,
(Reminds me of those twins, Claude and Amelia)
Free phone
A sign outside of a booth reads
(This what I was looking for)
Free phone booths are as the name suggest, they are rarely used but the intention behind them was to be of use to anyone lost or kidnapped, inside is single touch screen one button is an instant dial up to the nearest law enforcement and the other brings up a dial pad
Because Harry advised I didn’t try contacting the UCA while on the iron lung, I had to wait until I arrived here,
(Time to get to business)
Brrrrrppp
Brrrppp
Brr–
{“This is Unity City’s emergency hotline, are you in need of assistance?”}
“My name is Kage, and I believe chairman Second is looking for me.”

The Portals of Albion
Portals to other worlds. Siblings with a secret. A world in need of magic. Zach is haunted, scarred by his time spent in a place that might as well have been hell. Zara, his sister, even more so. After years of torturous experiments, they were finally rescued. But the years since then haven’t been easy. Both siblings just want a break, something to take their minds from the past. The portals that appeared all over the world a hundred years ago are the key. The reason behind years of captivity now holds the answer to their problems. For the second time in his life, Zack awakens as a ‘Traveler’. Someone possessing the ability to pass through these portals and venture into the mystic realms. What begins as a fresh start soon attracts the attention of nobles and those with less savory intentions. When you have known nothing but distrust for those in power, what would you do to remain in control of your life? I will be uploading new chapters on Tuesday and Saturday each week at 4pm Mountain Standard Time. (The story has been described as X-men meets Narnia. Which while not entirely accurate, is still a fun way of looking at it.) (Note: As with my other stories, this one focuses more on the characters than on constant action. The Lite-LitRPG and Gamelit elements are introduced into the story gradually.) Author's Note: This is my raw, mostly unedited text. I am using RR to test out this story as I'm writing it to get a feel for how the published and edited copy will be received. Certain sections of the story will be changed or added to when I publish it as well.

Again from Scratch Saga: Izmittor Unchained
If someone precious to you needed your help, would you extend it? Would you still do it if it costs you your peace and perhaps even your life? For Tercius, a man mysteriously reborn nearly thirteen years ago, there was only one answer to both questions. Feeling compelled, he sets out to journey to the northern Sogea and its infamous Western Izmittor mountain range, a natural stronghold of sky tearing mountains and deep canyons. Legends about the place abounded, but he knew without a doubt that the hidden valleys, rushing rivers, thick forests, and desolate landscapes hid powerful predators, the likes of which stalk the harsh terrains for an easy source of meat and bones. The many natural dangers of Western Izmittor would be hard enough to navigate safely for a lone traveler, but to make matters worse Tercius had enemies in the heights of Western Izmittor, humans and spirits who would see him dead if they ever learned of his true connection to the Pyramid of Tergaron and the Society of the Magi. To make things even more difficult, he also had to ensure that the true extent of his own Innate Skills remained hidden, for if the prying eyes of the world fell on him and his many secrets came to light, then he would never again know a day of peace. Can one reborn man manage to keep his secrets and still succeed in doing what his conscience compels him to? Will he have to choose one over the other? And can he do any of it without reigniting the sparks of a planetary war the likes of which had not been seen in millennia? Follow Tercius’ story and find out! *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** This story is a continuation of Again from Scratch, a story of mine also posted on RR. Reading it is NOT necessary to read this story, but for anyone who wants to get a little bit more background, here is a link: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/38803/again-from-scratch Again from Scratch was my first journey into writing and I have taken all I learned from that and started writing Again from Scratch Saga, a continuation that is almost stand alone. Changes in certain phrases and words between the two are edits made because of the rewrite plans I have for the old story. The story is available here, on RR, on Webnovel, and on Scribble Hub.The cover was taken from PublicDomainPictures.net and made by one Nona Lohr
