Away From Eden The Party Joiners
"Whoah! Can we still call this place a Grand Banquet? Is this still part of the game world?" Lizie asked her co-players. Now it was nighttime. The sea was dreamy. It seemed to have its own rhythmic pulse like it's sounding its own symphony. If some of the players find the night sea beautiful but for Lizie, the vast black water is terrifying. Aside from that their yacht looks like a small glittery thing sailing in the vast blackness, for her, there are actually lots of reasons to be scared on a cruise like this. First, of course, she knows they will be wrestling for their lives here while they are all amidst these unfamiliar waters. My ability is fire...and we are here in these vast waters. Among us, I am in the worst position here. Lizie thinks. She took a deep breath and massage her neck. There's actually one thing she wanted now. She wants this water journey and these long game nights to be over. "Aren't we dropping our anchor in lands nearby?" Lizie asked. "Huh? as if..."
Away From Eden Party Joiners Versus Players
Life in the yacht has been filled with tension every day now that the party joiners seemed to be living with the players. There's always a petty fight over supplies, facilities, or anything that concerns sharing the resources in the yacht. Aside from that the joiners aren't easily intimidated, they always start a fight. It was like their purpose in boarding in with the players was too annoyed them, and provoke them. "Aren't you joining them?" Carsen glanced at the joiner who interrupted his moment. He was there in the corner of the billiard room silently watching the other players hitting the billiard balls with a stick. It was quite fun at first but when the party joiners entered the room, a sudden silence enveloped them. The players exchanged glances at each other. While some of the joiners picked up a billiard stick. That means only one thing -- their fun was interrupted. "How about a bet?" said one of the joiners. No one is replying from the players perhaps because they wer
Away From Eden Game - The Boat Is Sinking
"If you don't get yourself immersed in this game world you'll lose the chance then to watch that sunset," Again the party joiner who approached him before was interrupting him. "What are you?" Carsen asked without looking. " I can see that you are fond of watching sunsets, just like how you are fond of staring the Transcendence," Transcendence?Carsen was caught by that word. How did he know about that thing? Then this guy must not be--" Surprised?" The party joiner muttered, smiling. A kind of smile he knows he can't trust. "Poor creature...an immortal who become mortal," the party joiner muttered. Then he looked straight into Carsen's eyes and asked, " How does it feel to see how limited is life here on this planet? How does it feel to see your human mother dying and not being able to do a thing about it but just stare death in the face?" The party joiner's questions were honestly hitting him hard. Carsen must admit what this stranger is saying is right. Life on planet e
Away From Eden I Know You
As Carsen heard the party joiner shout his name, the ocean hit a turbulent force that might destroy their boat. It was obvious that this particular party joiner isn't like the other joiners. He's got the ability, but it's difficult to figure out, And grabbing the boat where he was in won't be easy. But as of this moment, there were only two boats left sailing on the ocean - The player's boat, and that of the joiner. At any moment it could be their boat or the joiners whose going to sink. They were hit again by another force. But Carsen raised his palms and control the force not to reach them. At any moment the warning word will be uttered again before that happens they need each one's boat to be emptied or else one of them who will be an excess passenger will be executed. But no one on both of the players or the joiners wanted to give way. The party joiner made another blow. He stretched out his hands creating a large whirlpool of water. Then as he motioned his hands it become lar

"What's your name?" Carsen recalled how many times he have asked this strange party joiner for his name, but he always didn't tell him. The party joiner cocked his brows and looked intently at Carsen. " You sure you don't know me?" he asked. Carsen wondered evenmore. "Who the hell are you?" he repeated, this time with an irrate tone. The party joiner laughs. " Matias..." he muttered reaching out his hand for a handshake. Then he whispered , " master!" Carsen furrowed his brows. Why the hell is this stranger calling him master? Could he be an ally or an enemy? What?"I'm one of the outsider. And I know you." Matias said, showing off the symbol signfying he is one of them. " I'm the tech operator...remember? I saw you played in the first season!" Now, Matias sounds cheerful. He was far from the mysterious hot tempered guy he mingled with in the yatcht. "But..wh--"" But why did I treated you like that when we first meet? Because that's part of my job. I was send here to do
Away From Eden The Slaughtering App
Welcome To The Sandbar!At the echoing of the voice amidst the entire coastal village was the deafening sound of gunshots. It was so loud and bullets are shot anywhere that Carsen and Matias couldn't figure out where the shooter is. They run to seek a shield from anything nearby they could see on the beach sand. The shooting goes for long minutes and then it was silent. Carsen was panting for his breath. It's difficult to use my abilities for another battle now that my physical body is worn out and starving. But how could we escape from here? Carsen thought to himself. You have passed the screening process!The voice reverberated again. Then in a while, one of the lodges' doors opened. A group of people dressed in familiar outfits came out of it. Carsen was sure they were the game servants. The people in charge of assisting the players from dining to lodging and clothing. Even though Carsen isn't sure if they were humans, he sighed in relief at the sight of them. That means accomm

"How do you define perfection?" Talyn asked Usiu. Her face was gloomy. In her mind, they have come to a point where even those who are higher than humans are now in need of redemption. Usiu paused on playing his harp. He glanced at Talyn who seemed to be in deep thought now. Same with her, actually all of them who had been the Vilgroi's victims, all wanted the same thing -- to go home to their realm. " The dwellers of this planet are thinking their safety is found in the concept of perfection. That's why they're aiming for it," Usiu commented. Talyn glanced at Usiu. This boundless being sometimes is too deep, and conversing with him needs not just some serious ears. It isn't just his music that's figurative sometimes his words are. "All that's in here isn't my perfection. This isn't my world. This is far from what we have in Ethereal Lands," Talyn replied. " But for the dwellers in here, this is now the most beautiful they have seen," Usiu argued. Talyn darted a look at hi
Away From Eden Bidding Party
Try as he might but he could do nothing but worry about his credit in this Sandbar lodge would go higher. Ever since he arrived here, all days had been mostly about indulgence in the luxury this place offers. Anytime the room service would run and tell them they have such scheduled stuff to do, it was either a fine dining or a golf play and now, they had just been called out for a scheduled massage. Carsen wasn't really interested in such stuff. He's fine that he already had gotten some food and sleep. His focus is finding his co-players but it seems that the policy in this lodge is pushing them to take credits without giving them any choice. Spa Break By The Sea What could be more perfect?Carsen scoffed reading the signage advertisement as they were led to the luxury spa hotel. They were offered champagne upon arrival, and an invigorating massage followed after. " Hey C..Carsen...how do you think this cost?" Matias asked him while they were waiting in the lounge. " I don't know!

His Paradise
Everything in the cosmos has become a void. Almost a third part of it has fallen into blackness and emptiness. At this moment, Prime had been transported back to planet Earth but nothing was left in there. This planet has been long in desolation but this time it is very different, even dreadful, even emptier from the previous. Perhaps this is the earth's worst state. The planet has come into the void, and what was left were just vast barren, dry lands. There's not even a single drop of water. The planet is no longer the blue planet, the life-sustaining, and Prime knows that it would be just an hour before this entire land would disappear, and this planet would turn into just -- "a darkness", like those what happened in the cosmos. Seeing the planet's most devastating state, seeing its travail, and dying state, Prime couldn't help but be overwhelmed by emotions. He's late. There's not even a single life he had caught in here when he arrived, and that's so disappointing. Remorse, yeah, h

The High Council's realm is a serene scenery. It is so beautiful that it gives the beings there a sense of peace. It also has a kind of vibe that will make anyone feel in awe and somehow hesitant. But Prime Emanator has been used in this place. He no longer felt any intimidation. He moved inside. His steps were sure to where he was going -- to the Council hall. When he arrived there, he was met by a group of creatures in their human-like figure, yet their aura tells they aren't humans. "Oh, so gate did not reject you!" one of the Council commented. "We can see that you are now completely back, Emanator," one said. Prime ignored their comments. He has no time for that. "I bet you all know why I'm here," he said. The council who were sitting at the center seat raised his eyebrow for Prime's snobby attitude. "Careful, know where you are and who you are talking to," said the council. Prime scoffed, " I wonder if you still could act like high and mighty when all of us here got w

The Song Of Destruction
The stability of the planet was just a temporary relief but it was never the cure to what Earth is going through right now. Today is another menial day for the people. Some were bustling down the streets. At least now, though in a short time, city streets had become alive, again. Though there were remains of ruined buildings, at least the streets are no longer ghost towns. People are starting to go out and live their normal human lives. Friends and families gathered for a common work, for a meal, while the rest of humanity are beginning to get up again. It was particularly interesting to watch everyone having life in these busy streets, some walking busy, some walking leisurely, they're the symbol that the planet is now recovering. "This is disheartening to see," Talyn whispered. She was there in the side street, observing, and perhaps guarding. Usiu didn't reply for he felt the same way too. These humans didn't know that the peaceful lives they were enjoying now were just tempora

The Final Becoming
"So, how would I achieve that kind of state?" Carsen asked Tadhiel. He flexed his grip and his Mithril came out. Tadhiel clicked his tongue, " That's not just that," he muttered shaking his head. Carsen's brows furrowed, "What then?" he asked. "The battle you'll be in in the next days no longer needs combat, but it will be a battle of abilities, of powers. If you really want to stop the Vilgroi, you need to surpass him," Tadhiel explained. Then, his gaze trailed at Carsen from head to toe. " Aside from that the High Council will reject you, you won't win against the Vilgroi with that state of yours, so human, or a superhuman? No," Tadhiel stated. Carsen sighed, "Okay, so what are we going to do here?" "I will guide you in tapping into your full state as Prime Emanator," Tadhiel said. "Uh, but wait, erasing my humanity would that mean I'll forget all my memories as Carsen Adams?" he asked. Tadhiel chuckled, "No, you're not like the Vilgroi, that thing happens only when on

The Song Of Destruction
The gathering of all the gems in the pillar was the collapse of the entire game world. Because of that, no game realms would exist on planet Earth no matter how powerful the Vilgroi and his boundless are. Carsen and the Outsiders made sure of that. With the help of the supplies and lands they personally cultivated, and together with those gems, the Outsiders were able to at least restore the planet's vegetation a little. Such a thing has a big impact on human lives for that means, now supplies, food and all the basic necessities they need for living would no longer be denied of them. For a little time, the world was back to its normal state where the people's lives had been lived normally like before Jimmie Vaughn rose to power. However, Carsen Adams, and the Outsiders, know that this isn't the end yet, that there's still a threat out there, and perhaps there will be until the Vilgroi is alive. "It's like there's an eternity in each sound in this moment here in this farm," Uncle Br

Now Carsen is on his way to the trail to the pillar to collect the last gem he needed on it, the cruxible. "This is perhaps the last time I will be helping you dude," Takii said to Carsen. "I'm already quite obvious to the other hunters." Carsen tapped Takii's shoulder, " It's fine, bro, thanks for this anyway," he said. "But if I may ask, the game hunters, what are they?" Takii's brows furrowed, " What do you mean, what are they?" "What are they? Like are they like you? A human?" Carsen asked. Takii laughed, " Of course, but unlike the players, we weren't given choices to side with. Our allegiance must be with Jimmie Vaughn alone, and what I'm doing now would certainly risk my life." Carsen sighed, " This is the last time you'll going to be doing this anyway," he muttered. The trail to the pillar is extremely dangerous compared to the others he has gone to. Takii told him that it was a different world there beneath the portal, yet he needed to accomplish it all in a design

" I'm opening the cell gate now, master, but I can't guarantee your powers will work out fine when you guys come out," Talyn informed Carsen. They were still communicating through telepathy. "It's okay, Tal, I don't have time to play this game, can you give me some information about those voices we heard in our headphones?" Carsen asked. Talyn swiped the large monitors in front of her, and as she did so, certain images popped out on the hologram screen. She was quite surprised to see who were those. "Uhm..master based on the voice recognition here, it's Adeleum and Mihr," she told Carsen. "Adeleum? Mhir?" Carsen muttered. "Mihr?" Usius interrupted when he heard what Carsen had just uttered. Carsen turned to him and asked, " Yeah, why?" Usiu's eyes gleamed at the recognition of an old friend's name. Yeah, how could he forget such a name? Mihr and he grow up together in their realm. He was a childhood friend. Mihr even learned first to sing than him. He used to look up at hi

Carsen's eyes lit up as he sensed the Adeleum and Mihr's arguing. Although it isn't clear to him who's the creatures behind manipulating them into this game, he could sense right now, that whoever is behind this, they're not on good terms. My ability is working despite the unknown. Now, what I needed to know was to learn who are the boundless behind this! Sadly, I can't communicate with Talyn. Carsen thought to himself. The cell gate sounded again. This time, the game soldiers are fetching another player. The players hold their breath, expecting that one of them will be chosen to face their death. "It's now your turn, doctor!" Todd was startled at what he heard on his headphones. His face went pale in fright. He looked around as if asking for help from his fellow players but he knew that they couldn't. Todd looked back at his co-players when the game soldiers took him. Meanwhile, Dizal banged the cell in frustration. "We must get out of here!" he muttered. He then turned to C

The cell gate opened. The players all hold their breath anxiously. This time, the first one to play was called. It was Jair. Hearing that, Lizzie broke out in tears and begged she'd replace him instead but the operators were too deaf. It's unusual this time that there aren't any explanations or rules given before they were called out, before the start of the game. The more reason that the players get nervous. They wonder about the uncertainty, and they know its possible danger so it's scaring them. The rest of them remained quiet, while others had violent reactions. Like Lizzie who was crying on the floor now, and Dizal who was hitting the cell door and cursing at the cameras above them. While Carsen on the other hand just sits calm, thinking in the corner. "Urgghh!!! Let us all out of here!" Dizal was screaming. He tried to throw some force field on the cell bars but it just bounced. The prison cell where they are held is indeed resistant to their ability as Carsen said. Aside from
