Magic! The ultimate dream of children, Everywhere! No matter who you are or what conditions you've grown in, the one thing we all have in common is the DREAM!
Throwing fireballs out of our palms into a waiting horde of monsters!
Bringing down a meteor from outer space with a flick of the wrist!
Causing a tsunami to wash away your most hated nemesis; the super handsome boy four seats to your left that your crush has a crush on!
Flying away on a hurricane to whatever destination you wish around the world!
Magic! A word with a million fantasies within it!
'I am going to be shooting out Lasers from my eyes! Throwing Fire Tornados at all my enemies! Cause Earthquakes to gobble up entire CITIES!'
Cackling madly at the prospect of using magic, he did not notice the goddess leave or the fact that he had been daydreaming for 'days' already. That is until that abominable sound came again.
Ding!
System -
Do you wish to finalize your choice?
Yes - No -
'Ahhh! Why can't that horrible screen leave me alone; constantly badgering me!'
Every hour that passed, the screen had popped up to remind him of his choice and promised life. Every time it showed up, he swiped it away with his mind. To him at that moment, it was nothing more than a nuisance. Like a buzzing fly that you can't seem to hit no matter how hard you try.
Finding himself out of his most joyful mood, he finally deemed the blue screen worthy of his attention. To notice that all the magical fantasies hinged on it entirely! With a mentally 'humph,' he pressed 'Yes.'
Looking around, he noticed the goddess was not here anymore. As he wondered where she went this time, a second blue screen opened in front of him,
The Goddess
Greetings little one,
If you are reading this, then you have completed in making yourself a complete and whole soul. Before you go, you will need a few bits of information to move about without looking extremely suspicious by the common person. First, the world you are going to go to is called Telentra. Within Telentra there are six continents. Javal, the land of green orcs and the central government of the BeastKin Kingdom. Telfun, the home of the Dark Orcs. A truly dark race indeed. Menlinhiel, Land of the High Elves and their servants, The Snow Elves. Draoul, Land of the DragonKin. Leneros, Land of the Light Elves. And Lastly, the biggest of the continents, Swlvenous, the land of origins. From this continent, all races had originated from, then spread out due to war with each other.
You will land on Swlvenous. Within The Seven Duchies, where exactly I do not know.
On Swlvenous, seven races have staked a substantial claim. They are the seven duchies (Humans very tolerant of other races, but have a significant slave market). The Holy Kingdom (Humans intolerant of others). The Grey Orcs of Himidal (Though they are usually reclusive and an honorable race, once they enter the battlefield, all armies fall before them). The Dark Orcs of Telfun (A race of Vile beings, they seek only death and destruction). The BeastKin Kingdom (Lead by a Coalition of Elders), the Green Orcs of Javal (A tribal race of Orcs that can stand against the Grey Orcs if they ever find unity). And lastly the Forest Elves of Retuali (A Nation hidden within one of the more dangerous forests. Only contact ever made with them was through trade at their borders).
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
Now the seven duchies. As its name states, it is split into Seven duchies controlled by seven families. The Royal family Livths, the Orbes, the Irks, the Durance, the Falen, the Lendial, and the Aistmor family.
Remember to keep your head down until you understand more about the customs and traditions of the land you find yourself in. Be careful, my child. I will be watching you from afar. Always remember that.
P.S. As a parting gift for the foreseeable future, I am giving you a knowledge stone of the primary language within the Seven Duchies, a set of clothes to cover yourself up, and five golden coins.
Your Goddess,
Fenia - The Goddess of War, Redemption, and Perseverance
- When you are done reading, Press here to be transferred to your new world! -
Suddenly finding himself quite emotional at the care this kind being showed him, he read the note multiple times to fully memorize the information she had given, but more importantly to him at that time was her name and title.
'Thank You, Fenia. This I will never forget. You will have your cathedrals, and they will be Magnificent!'
After composing himself, he pressed on the bottom tab. As soon as he did it though, a rippling pain shot out of the center of his soul. It was as if his essence had broken out and grabbed the energy the goddess had given him, forcing it to the center of his soul. But just as suddenly as the pain came, it left without a single trace.
Exclaiming in relief, he waited for unconsciousness to come so he can wake up in the new world, yet it never happened. As he floated there, a bright white light started to shine right above him at a single point. It then began to expand until it was almost twice as wide as he was. Without warning, the light encompassed him within it.
'Ahhh!! My Eyes!!'
As it covered him, its light started to increase causing him much pain because he could not cover his "Eyes," or its equivalent. After what felt like an eternity of torture, he felt an all familiar pull.
'NoNoNoNoNoNo! Not gravity! Ahh!'
Feeling like he was falling off a 100-story skyscraper, he moved his arms to cover his face instinctively.
'Wait, did I just move my 'Arms'?'
He looked down at himself and noticed that he not only had perfectly normal arms but a normal chest and even feet!
'Hahahaha! I have FEEET!'
As he continued to revel in his perfectly normal body, and the fact that he didn't have any weird deformities, he suddenly hit the ground.
Thump!
Spitting grass out of his mouth he cried out,
"Ugh … That hurt! Wasn't I supposed to dematerialize and suddenly appear in some princess's castle as she begs me for help against some Demon Lord?"
Sitting up, he started to check his entire body for any weird lumps, bumps, or holes. Just as he finished all visible parts of his body, he checked that last remaining area.
Looking down, he sighed in relief that everything down there was alright.
"Thank God, nothing weird happened to my body. Now, where are the clothes she promised me?"
Stepping forward, a sudden 'Thump!' startled him. Looking back at where he was standing just a second ago, he found a sack that looked filled.
'Isn't that dangerous?'
"Never mind that, let's see what is in this potato sack."
Bending down, he picked up the bag and dumped out everything within it. Out came the shiny golden coins, a set of clothes, and a mysterious glowing stone. He took the clothes off the ground and started to put them on,
"Well, at least they are soft and comfortable. Was kinda afraid that they might be as rough as that sack."
Once he was fully clothed, he looked back at the pile of shiny coins and the single glowing rock that was left. After picking up the coins and putting them in his pocket, he reached out to the bright stone. But as he touched it, an electrifying zap hit him, he pupils dilated as he stared out into nothing.
In his mind, an enormous amount of information was suddenly forced deep within. Words of unknown origin that made no sense just a second ago were so familiar he would have thought that they were apart of his first language had he not known it was from the glowing stone. Unable to take any more, his eyes rolled back into his head as he fell backward; unconscious.
Waking up after an undetermined time he screamed at the goddess as if she could hear him,
"You could have told me!!! I would have been better prepared to be electrocuted!! I could ha…"
He noticed something so glaringly obvious; it was a wonder he missed it.
"What the HELL!!!"
