[DING]

[Below the bright moon, a promise of ambition formed, and a new world was presented to the one without rights, the one without past, and the one who would hold the future]

[To strive for greatness and power, to quench his desire for adventure, he’ll fight, ploy, deceive, and kill for the sake of his goals]

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm [So that one day he can be worthy of being the one that holds said rights]

As the primary set of notifications ended with easy however deep phrases, a brand new set of messages was revealed for Dale, as if it had been ready for that actual second.

This was a distinct expertise from what he was used to seeing, it felt deeper, stranger, historic even.

The notifications appeared a bit totally different from what he was used to, as whereas the abnormal ones had been a light-weight clear blue and considerably adorned, these had been purple and adorned with unusual runes on the edges.

It wasn’t the identical because the notification representing the desire of the Gods, nevertheless it nonetheless held a sure weight that appeared to echo inside his thoughts as he listened and browse the phrases contained inside every paragraph.

Both means, they waited patiently for him to start:

[A new future has been written, a new fate is being inscribed upon the stars]

[They shine, accepting the birth of a new tale, one of blood, wars, failure, and conquest]

[Its end would be of gold and glory, of prosperity and silver, it was what they declared, high up on the constalations]

“!”

Dale’s imaginative and prescient immediately started to spiral, giving him a fantastic sense of nausea and lightness.

He was being sucked someplace, like a bit of leaf being dragged down a drain.

[A new story is being sung, witness the birth…]

However earlier than he might hear or learn the remainder of the System’s phrases, his imaginative and prescient was engulfed by the ever-revolving mist that surged earlier than his eyes.

/FLASH!/

/FLASH!/

“?!”

His thoughts was immediately bombarded with moments and experiences of somebody he didn’t know… Flashes of wars, adventurers, lovers, and getting older… All moments he by no means felt…

However the sensation on his pores and skin, the smells upon his nostril, the sounds on his ears, the visions mirrored in his eyes, the blood on his tongue… It was all actual. All… Him.

He noticed himself standing on the fringe of a precipice, gazing down at ruins within the distance, a way of discovery and accomplishment… He had lastly discovered it.

He noticed himself overlooking a battlefield, troopers screaming in agony and frenzy as they marched for glory… In the present day, he would deliver down a tyrant and free his individuals.

He noticed himself sitting earlier than a pile of paperwork, writing in phrases he could not acknowledge… It was heavy work, however the individuals wanted the provides.

He noticed himself attending a funeral, the place he delivered the pinnacle of a fantastic beast as an providing to the person who introduced him to his place… The person wasn’t virtuous, however he would not be right here had been it not for him.

He could have been a person of many sins, however he was a person who enforced the principles.

He tried his greatest to pay attention for the whole lot, however he was afraid his head had greater priorities…

Additional time, the ache subsided, a lot for his sanity’s well being.

It went down sufficient for him to have the ability to kind coherent ideas:

‘This headache… It is the identical I felt after I “turned again” time.’

‘Did I… Simply expertise all the lifetime of this man?… Not the whole lot, most of it was like a film going 128x occasions…’

‘Though I am unable to bear in mind a lot… There’s nonetheless so much I could make sense of… It is definitely greater than what I felt earlier than… However that is the distinction between a lifetime of reminiscences and some years of reminiscences… I am unable to say which was extra environment friendly.’

‘Nonetheless, I did not know this was even potential… I’ve altered this reminiscence a lot that… The way forward for this man twisted to an unbelievable diploma… How did he even develop into an Emperor?…’

‘Additionally, the way in which he acted… I really feel as if I used to be myself. And I discover it ridiculous that this man, somebody born in a totally totally different time and land, had related codes of conduct to me.’

‘A part of my character seemingly received engrained in him, or these reminiscences used mine to construct this “simulation”.’

‘I do not imagine that is actual, in the long run, I’ve “photoshopped” these reminiscences, however perhaps on the market, in a parallel universe, Maltur did exist, turning into the ruler of this faraway continent.’

‘However how completely ridiculous… Might each reminiscence maintain the potential to alter this a lot?… No, seemingly not… Some circumstances can be wanted for this to be potential.’

‘I am sure of this… Not all three of the reminiscences have the potential for these “adjustments”… However I am going to hold a watch open, simply in case.’

‘It is positively a lot to contemplate… For now, I am going to see how issues are faring, I’ve spent far too lengthy within the reminiscences and everybody is probably going reasonably frightened about me.’

‘As soon as that is performed, I am going to proceed… I am primarily working in the direction of my targets simply by doing this.’

‘I can inform that if I can take in a few of these reminiscences, I might be capable of develop significantly within the span of days… Although that is the identical for the reminiscences of my very own future.’

‘There’s a lot to be performed, two extra reminiscences to go, after which I can give attention to the remainder…’

[DING]

[The Stars above have recognized your story, pleased with its end, they bless the tale within the darkness above so it may never be forgotten as all Stars are eternal]

[You have Attained a new Tale! Scribe of the Stars]

Notes

Hey, it is me.

So, we completed this, lastly proper?

Anyhow, there are two extra reminiscences to go, not counting that different one…

With that performed, there’s actually nearly nothing on our strategy to begin the subsequent Arc that may result in… Some fairly attention-grabbing issues.

Anyhow, I do not plan to waste almost as a lot time with these subsequent reminiscences as you assume as I imagine I’ve constructed a premise with this one which’s adequate.

We’ll develop the whole lot that Dale experiences right here additional sooner or later, that is for certain, and it will result in better discoveries down the road.

For now, I am going to flesh out a few of my notes and take a break to write down one thing else, I will be again tomorrow, as all the time.

day to you all, peace.
