Chapter 1
Day 1342106-ish
‘I could now hear distinct voices. Oooh seems like there are at least three females out there. Sweet thighs of Lilith is this a dream? Freedom and females? Fuck yeah! Wait, wait, wait. Get a hold of yourself man. Freedom first, then a body, then females. Focus. This may be one of the most important first meetings in your life. Oh here they come. I saw as three humans, two carrying one in between them, half ran half limped into my chamber. They threw the limp one on the ground and slammed the door behind them, barring it with a sword. What followed right after was the sound of a barrage of spells hitting the door. They looked a bit dazed as they looked around the room, maybe it’s the gold? Ok here I go. Ahehe-hemm.’ “Hello”.

‘These fucking bastards from the Church of the Fallen! Why were they doing this? Wasn’t burning down our city enough? Now they had to take our lives to? And why are they still after us? We’ve gone so far into the jungle now that even I’m lost. And to top it all of; they have carpets. Three of them! What the fuck! Who uses three carpets? That’s inzane! Even Alex’s house only had the one and that one wasn’t military grade like the ones that the priests have. It’s only a mercy we were able to reach the jungle before they were on top of us.’

‘They were still after us. Using carpets to scan for us from the air and ghouls on the ground, trying to sniff us out. The only thing that had saved us so far was that they didn’t respect the jungle, and when you go around walking over snake nest after snake nest and breaking terror ant nests, willy nilly, it slows you down considerably, but that was our only advantage.
We had evaded them for two whole days already, but we knew it wouldn’t last forever. That is when we found it. Lording over the canopy was a black and gold pyramid. We ran towards it with wild abandon in the hope that perhaps we might be able hide there or at least rest as we approached more and more buildings came into view. They all looked ancient. The trees started thinning out and we started to get a better sense of the sheer size of this place. It was massive. How have I never heard of this place? How can anything like this even be hidden? We took a breather whilst taking in the sight of the abandoned city. It looked a lot like the ruins of Neban, but we couldn’t be anywhere near Neban. That’s at least three hundred leagues away. After our brief pause we started running again, heading for the pyramid in hopes of a good place to hide and rest. Pyramids are usually old places of worship or where people put their dead kings so they are almost always trapped to some degree. Just as we made it to the pyramid we heard the cry of a banshee at the edge of the forest. Fuck.’

‘Fuck, fuck, fucking shit! What is with this place? All we’ve seen since those iron doors are corridors filled with traps and staircases that drop you into them! I mean who has two pitfalls at both ends of a stair case? And spike traps at the edge of the holes? Overkill anyone? Aren’t there meant to be some rooms around filled with gold or something? What the fuck! And even if all these traps have been helping us distance ourselves from those necromancing bastards, we need to rest. I haven’t slept for two days, but they can just summon a squad of minions and send them after us when they start to tire and then when they’ve rested they catch us up quickly enough. If it wasn’t for my “Boost” and “Enhance Perception” we’d be dead seven times already. I’m running on fumes now though and we’re almost out of mana crystals. If we don’t find somewhere to hole up and hide for a while soon, we’re be doomed’

‘Doors! I can see doors! Thank the gods! Alex got hit in the leg a few corridors back and Claire hasn’t had the time nor the mana to fix him up, we weren’t going to make it much farther without dropping him. I used the last of my mana crystals to boost us into the room, me and Claire dropping Alex on the floor inside, slamming the door behind us, ramming my sword in the holds to barr the door and then in sync falling down in exhaustion. Just as the doors closed we heard a barrage of missiles hit them behind us. Thank the gods for iron.’
‘I was slumped down against the doors and just starting to take in the room we were in when I saw a.. Nah couldn’t be. I’m hallucinating. Right? At the other side of the room an oppressive reddish black aura permitted the air. In it I saw… a dragon. There’s a fucking dragon over there! We are so screwed! Forget the church! A dragon can wipe out a country if it wants to! What are we going to do? We are so unbelievably screwed, it can’t even be described with words! Wait! Maybe it’s asleep! Yeah maybe that’s it! The only reason we’re alive must be because it’s asleep. Oh please all that is and ever was holy let it be asleep. As I prayed with every fiber of my being I saw as Claire looked up from the floor where she fell down. I saw the initial surprise then the terror. I saw as the scream started to form an her lips and then die when realisation hit her. We both looked at the thing in quiet horror. Wishing with all our might that the beast not be awake. The thing we heard next made me want to cry’ “Hello.”
Author's note: Sorry to those who have shown this any kind of interest. I meant to put out a chapter yesterday but I had to do homework that I was sure I didn’t have, until it was pointed out to me that infact I did.
