One Day, the World Ended   It started more or less around Seattle. From the outside of the area, it merely looked like a massive power failure of some sort. From the inside… it was worse. Not only did every form of technology stop, but people started to Change… beasts started to mutate. And mankind almost died out trying to adapt. And from above… Change left no choice. The beleaguered crew of the ISS had almost no warning, and they Changed before anyone else. Thus, they survived. Thus, they still live, out in space, far from the world that somehow created their species. Because humankind always endures, no matter what their shape. Ringworld is a pure science-fiction side story from the world of The Changed Ones trilogy already on Royal Road. The LitRPG aspect of the main story is absent here. Parts of the book may have appeared in the main story, notably as supplemental content. Publication schedule: Occasional and irregular. Whenever I have a complete and relatively edited chapter. Formatting note: “blah” is how people speak. ‟blah” (note the subtle starting punctuation) is how Spaceborne speak (the italics used in the main story work only for a limited time).
