2023-11-27 21:52:16 +0000 UTC View PostI realized pretty quickly that there was no need for me to be hyper-observant of my roommate while we were both logged into the game. Surely, Rhona would message me when she pulled Bell in for a meeting ...
2023-11-23 22:08:02 +0000 UTC View PostAs my last class of the day was winding down, an icon on my interface began blinking, letting me know I had a message. I knew it had to be important because Lisa had allowed the message through during class. S...
2023-11-20 20:33:02 +0000 UTC View PostFor low and mid-tier members: NEW CHAPTERS HAVE BEEN RELEASED! (High-tier should have already gotten their notification!)
I hope this method is working for everyone! Enjoy the chapter!
2023-11-16 23:38:26 +0000 UTC View Post“Do you think things will be like they are in the game when it happens?” Elaine asked as we ate our virtual lunch together between classes. Since learning that the Alliance had a virtual university i...
2023-11-16 23:29:46 +0000 UTC View Post“I still think we should have explored the area with Justin and his party,” Bell said with a pout as we prepared to enter the rift outside the Atlas office turned store.
Deni sighed. “I know,...
2023-11-13 23:35:43 +0000 UTC View PostI finally did it.

2023-11-11 21:12:55 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 24 - A New Game Begins
I hadn’t held much hope that Rhona would be able to facilitate a change in the upcoming game release. Apocalypse Earth, or AE for short, was supposed to be a sort of practice run for the tran...
2023-11-11 16:28:02 +0000 UTC View PostA short while earlier.
Special Agent Rodney Jones glanced at the seemingly normal people enjoying their meals around them. It was unnerving to know that any one of them could kill him...
2023-11-06 21:26:36 +0000 UTC View PostI knocked on the doorframe of Rhona’s office, using the public entrance this time. It was late enough in the morning that all the Alpha and Beta testers were already logged in, so nobody noticed my ...
2023-11-03 20:22:20 +0000 UTC View PostIt took three more weeks and two additional prototypes to get the device working the way I wanted. After examining the finished product, Vasilla declared she believed it to be sufficiently different from the p...
2023-11-01 22:42:30 +0000 UTC View PostHaving sworn the oath and effectively joined the sect, I didn’t see much need to spend what little free time I had pretending to be part of the sect. However, with my new focus on creating a magical meal repli...
2023-10-30 17:29:50 +0000 UTC View PostRefreshed by my meal, I was in a good mood wh...
2023-10-27 21:52:44 +0000 UTC View PostAs she turned to approach, my new fake rival seemed to realize that we couldn’t explore the sect together as rivals. I could see her hesitation to continue role-playing, and ultimately, she stuck with the Young ...
2023-10-27 21:26:38 +0000 UTC View PostBecause I’d researched other players’ experiences with sects in advance, the skill and combat assessments were not a surprise. Without being able to measure the affinity strength of unawakene...
2023-10-25 17:56:05 +0000 UTC View PostI was surprised to see Stella standing beside Rhona when I arrived at Rhona’s office. There was a tension present that I was unaccustomed to. Neither woman showed any outward signs of stress, but I’d...
2023-10-20 16:24:55 +0000 UTC View PostIn a small research ship hidden in orbit above Earth, an irate old elf struggled to restrain his anger as his attempt to acquire his newest subject was rebuffed. When he saw the dual affinity scores for one o...
2023-10-18 21:59:27 +0000 UTC View PostBefore our hands made contact, I paused. “Forgive me, Elder Kairos, but can we speak with Administrator Rhona before leaving?”
The Mage sighed and dropped his hand. I knew I needed to be cautious...
2023-10-16 19:45:29 +0000 UTC View PostIt took three weeks for the first person to awaken in our office. Xavier Armsfield was a member of Alpha Group, meaning he was not part of any military but was likely still a government asset of some kind. I knew th...
2023-10-14 18:41:15 +0000 UTC View PostI spent a couple of hours playing with Amie as she rotated through the pile of new toys she’d gotten for Christmas. I was tempted to sneak off and squeeze in a delve while she napped, but I suppressed the urge. Beside...
2023-10-13 01:05:21 +0000 UTC View PostThe rest of the delve was largely unremarkable. There were a few Time and Void creatures among the next series of mobs, but otherwise, it was the same as before. Aside from taking a few extra hits to defe...
2023-10-06 15:37:25 +0000 UTC View Post“I’m earning Alliance contribution points?” I asked in confusion. From what little I’d learned from Robert, I shouldn’t be eligible. “How?”
Mage Stella smiled brightly. “You became ...
2023-10-04 17:06:45 +0000 UTC View PostIt took me seven hours.
Seven hours of Mediation to contemplate Mage Stella’s insights and comments. As much as I hadn’t appreciated being abandoned in Antarctica, it was a lot easier t...
2023-10-02 13:38:11 +0000 UTC View Post“And you are sure she will be safe?” Rhona asked the violet-haired Mage next to her as she watched the budding Space Mage through one of the Alliance’s hidden satellites. Rhona hadn’t been confid...
2023-09-30 20:20:27 +0000 UTC View PostWhile I waited for the Space Mage to meet me at my new office two days later, I took a closer look at the tools on my workstation. The area was set up almost exactly like my Junction workstation, though t...
2023-09-28 15:56:02 +0000 UTC View Post“You don’t have to help me move in, you know,” I said one last time as my brother exited his car in the nearly empty parking lot and headed toward me.
