"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!

JiggsWhere am I? The smell of rotten sewer soothes his nose. When he opened his eyes he saw he was inside a dirty cell or he'll say this looks more like of dungeon. Jiggs was trembling in fear and uncertainty recalling that a while ago he was just there swimming in the turbulent ocean for the boat is sinking game. He called for his co-players but noticed his voice just slammed echoing amidst the powdered stone wall. "Hello?! Guys! Lizie! Carsen!" Jiggs yelled banging the cell bars. "It's no use." Jiggs noticed he wasn't alone in the cell. Jair was with him. Damn! Of all the players why him? He thinks. He continued to bang the cell bars not listening to what Jair had said. " It's no use! This entire dungeon is resistant to our abilities!" Jair yelled. Jair was actually the first one to be thrown into this cell. He had spend many dark nights inside here and tried of escaping using his mythical creatures or drawing out monsters with his blood. But no matter how he tried his ab
Away From Eden Game - Deadly Scavenger Hunt
" You know?" The players' eyes were all directed at Carsen. Carsen smiled confidently at them. " So what is it that we need to search?" they asked him. "A coconut tree by the beach, and beneath it is the tool we need for the next hunt...so we need to dig the soil nearby it!" Carsen explained. " A coconut tree? How come? Are you sure?" Jair sounded doubtful. " Well...if you don't believe me you can go search on your own," Carsen said. " So, shall we move? The clock is ticking!" he pointed to the time tracker in his hand. " Wait! Jair is right! But why coconut? Seriously?" Janesi asked him. Carsen sighed, " coconut...you open its fruit..all you see is all white thing and water inside...sky and water, that's an allusion...riddle right?" he explained. Jiggs laughed. He patted Carsen on the shoulders. " Now I really believe you score high on the IQ test!" he muttered. The players headed to the part of the island where there are many coconut trees and they all hurriedly dig
Away From Eden Careful Death Is In The Area
"Careful death is in the area!" The voice's instruction rang in Carsen's mind as they headed to search the tower where Lizie is possibly keep. The tower! That's what they need to find. But could there be tower in this island? It is all beaches and lodges here! Think Carsen! Think!As few hours were just left Carsen and the players moved hurriedly. This time the matter between life and death is strongly felt, and more that it was when Lizie's horrible situation is depicted once more on the hologram screen, giving them updates, terrifying them more even. Seeing Lizie's situation, Jair loses his temper. The more that he becomes irrational. Carsen gets that the game master is playing with their emotions right now. Then the ticking of the clock was heard louder. Carsen paused from his track. He is thinking. The other players do so. "Someone stepped on something," Carsen muttered. " What something?" Carsen looked down and replied, " a trap?" " Don't move!" he yelled. The other
Away From Eden Fall Back
There's one talk of the town in El Rotosi recently, the Deserving app. The public's opinion is divided. Some are in favor of the app, some hate it. Some like to use the app, some do not want it. And this means that Dash's hired protesters needed to work more. So, right now Uncle Briggs was back in town. Memories flashed back to Uncle Briggs as his feet touches the El Rotosi ground. Everything had begun in here. In this place, is where his happiness, his dreams, and his brokenness are. The smell of the streets is still the same. The uniformed Newman's houses are still the same. El Rotosi was still a place for the lowly. Nothing changes except for the people. " Folks!" Uncle Briggs voice echoed over the megaphone he was holding. Now, they were in a plaza, in the center place of the town. With his loud voice and sound of conviction, he's drawing people's attention. Plus the media people were present because they were paid by the insurgent Castellan to make this rally big. The other
Away From Eden Insurrection
" Dad!" Harpie was frowning. The sound of the voice was up for a fight. It was about the video of her fight with Orin. Now the public knows Lucas Wyatt isn't just an Outsider leader but an alien too like Harpie without them knowing that it was really Orin who just assumed Lucas' form. Same with Harpie. That's what she knows. She had a fight with Lucas Wyatt. But right now, that's not her problem. She's more concerned about how that CCTV video of their homes circulated to the public. If there's one person who can answer all these, it's her dad. " The people are saying I'm an alien and now they know I can multiply myself into many!" Harpie exclaimed. "Is that so?" Jimmie sounds uninterested. He continued sipping his coffee. "Take a seat!" Harpie raised an eyebrow. His dad seemed not bothered. Not even interested to listen to what she is complaining about. "That was just fine.." Jimmie said. Harpie was stunned. Did she hear it right? Did her father really say that?"How come
Away From Eden Fallen From Grace
" I hope Matias will successfully give the key to the phoenix's song at the time when it is needed," Talyn said. She already entrusted that battle to Matias. There was nothing she can do anymore about it since he was now in the game world. Matias entering the game world was the fruit of their labor. She was tired and even risked spying in Jimmie's control room. Until she learned that the next phase of the game will be needing party joiners. She asked Matias help to crack the system code, so she can insert Matias' information in there. Matias though he's a human was incredibly intelligent when it comes to technology and computers. He was successful in breaking one firewall. So, he was in the game as a party joiner. Talyn asked him to do more, like hack Jimmie's control room but he told her that's impossible to do. He hadn't seen such kind of technology in his entire life as Jimmie have. Anyway, even she was shocked by what she saw in Jimmie's control room at that time. If her master,

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
