"I still think Gandu's story isn't adding up." Dana whispered into Meena's ears as they headed for Ladus. It was merely a six hour journey and they took their time. They were close to home.

"I don't know. He has a thing where he can't leave his opppressor because he's attached to him. If I could have a word for it, I'll give him that, but he looks genuine this time." She replied.

"You're just nice. Hey big guy, you get my point?" She spoke, addressing Eden.

"I don't know Dana, I'll have to go with everyone on this too." He replied.

"You big old softies." She groaned and pushed forward.

"I should go home one of these days." Meena spoke.

"Me too." Eder responded.

"Is home really home, though?" His twin asked.

"I guess."

Then there was silence from the trio.

"Abilities: Flight, time travel, Necromancy, Teleportation, spatial dark beams."

  • Good news?

    Gandu walked into his residence, tired and weak. It had been a long day, one that ended with sorrow. Sorrow he never wished for in the first place. He did not care much for the deceased, but he was his customer and as a trader, the mutual respect sought his obligation to mourn the dead. Despite the fact that the town was still empty because of the evacuation from earlier, he never bothered stay at the lab after helping to treat Dana. There was a lot of work expecting him and work wasn't what he needed. It was sleep. As he crashed on the bed, burying his face into the soft cushioning, he groaned, his ears picking up a familiar presence."Go away." He groaned, his face still buried in the clothing. "I need your help." David spoke. Gandu, obviously annoyed, rose and faced the man, giving him a look of displeasure. "What do you want this time?" He asked. "I need you to help me study the dark fairies that are currently maimed. I have them captured inside the lab. I believe we can cure

  • When Push comes to shove, Just remember…

    Eden sat alone in the dimly lit room, his massive frame hunched over, shoulders trembling. The silence around him was suffocating, broken only by the shallow rhythm of his breath. His eyes, reddened and hollow, stared at the floor as if trying to summon his brother’s shadow back from the void. Every memory ate at his chest, his brother’s laughter, the promises they made, the last look before the end. He gripped his Bedsheet, his hands shaking, heart breaking. No roar could express the ache within.He glanced at the wall, on it was his brother's old quiver, mounted on it like a trophy. Since the tragedy, he only withdrew to himself, acknowledging only himself and his grief. He blamed every one, including himself, wishing he had made different decisions, even way back since they were kids. "Maybe he would still be alive." He thought, ending that stream of memories and wishes, but the reality still faced him…his brother was dead and he was here. All he could do was to honour his memo

  • Finally Broken

    David stood on top of the building he resided in Ladus, staring deep into the night's sky. His mind was still dazed by the events of the past day. Him losing two lifelines between minutes, the realisation of his cosmic alter ego hunting him across every realm and the fact that he had just lost a dear friend made him numb. He stood in silence, thoughts flowing through him like a turbulent river. The solitude he relished dominated him, giving him a sense of calm to complement his sorrow.His system interface popped up, indicating he had leveled up to level 38. He frowned, yelling, "So this was what you meant by stopping the void? The one time you give me a quest that doesn't explicitly tell me to kill, you instead ensure my friend is killed. Fucking tell me, what's the point of this system?" He asked. The interface remained stagnant, no replies typing forth like it would. He squeezed his fists, anger quickly building in him. "So this is it. You wanted to break me, just as you have ev

  • I Am The One Beyond All.

    David sighted the desert before Ladus, depressing himself gradually till his feet touched the sand. He ran quickly to his friends, who all shared gloom looks with Audrey too. His face squeezed, wondering if something bad had happened. He did not utter a word, but he proceeded, observing the silence they embodied. He counted mentally, relief gradually washing over him until he realised it."Where is Eder?" He asked lowly. They did not hear his question. Well, he only spoke to himself, struggling to believe what had just popped up in his head. He looked devastated, each step of his now slow. Finally Audrey noticed him, shouting "David." He stopped behind them, watching as they mourned the empty sand. He fell on his knees, a tear dropping from an eye. The immense sorrow filling his heart was turbulent, breaking every emotional barrier he had on his grief. He wanted to cry. He had just lost a friend. But he didn't—he knew that he had to be strong for them.He rose, watching the sand

  • The Void Won.

    Audrey grabbed her sword, heading for the door. The Doctor tried to overlap her but Gandu grabbed her, stopping her in her tracks. "Let the kid do what she does well. None of us can fight those things. She's our best chance." He stated. She sighed, perhaps there was some truth in his words. Audrey neared the door, the heavy thuds now reduced. It was as though they sensed her presence, now baiting her. She put her hand on the lash, taking a deep breath. She flipped it open and a spurt of dark matter emitted from her sword, bursting through the wave of Fairies. She jumped forth, plunging into their mist while the wave of energy rushed forth, affecting every fairy around them. She stopped—a path had already been cleared. No, every fairy hunting her had died. Somehow, the blast radius from her sword had widened, adopting a massive kill effect. Both adults emerged from the basement, flabbergasted by the number of dead dark fairies spread across the floor. "You two should check on t

  • This is one Hell Of A Way To Go Out.

    The fairy general scoffed as David became nothing. He slowly floated forward, watching Dana struggle to escape. She was afraid, her legs hitting each other occasionally, mid stepping and tripping over. He laughed darkly, inching towards her. "I am done playing games with you." He spoke and rushed at her. In that moment David came swooping in again, slamming him on the ground. He got up, angered by the player's interruption. "You stupid delinquent. Don't you ever learn?!" He yelled. David scoffed, raising his shoulders. "Maybe I don't care about the consequences." He responded. He dodged downwards, evading an attack from one fairy. He rapidly turned, delivering a hard punch to the second fairy's chest. Immediately, he snapped the fairy's neck, letting it drop dead.…at least momentarily. He turned back only to receive a tackle from the general, pushing him backwards. He tensed his muscles, gripping his arms, causing his push to massively reduce. He groaned. He was beginning to feel t
