SCORPIO, The Guide Droid (Page 97)

~~~(POV: Nathan Opal)~~~

~~~(Location: Mega-Security Ward-23, Belsavis)~~~

"Fine, but I'm not taking her with me off Belsavis after she's done giving me the information. I don't need a homicidal droid living in my ship."

There is no logical reason to take SCORPIO off Belsavis with me. After I get the information that I need, I'm leaving her here with the silent tomb that this place will become.

"I have one last favor to ask of you... Please, just listen to me..."

Preparing For Von Jaric Larid's Raid I (Page 82)

~~~(Time: 8:28 AM)~~~

"The city center is the best place to find people to do the raid with me... But should I even bother with that? I'm probably strong enough to take it on my own..."

I've underestimated the power I'd have at level 24 with my Class, The Darkness Incarnate. In truth, Von Jaric Larid, the Vampire boss of the Raid. ...

Meeting with Borealis (Page 164)

~~~(Location: The Nexus of Knowledge, Primordium Prime)~~~

"Where the fuck did he go!? He touched it, and he was taken! Do you have any readings from what's going on in there!?"

Durado yelling at me is not helping this sense of... Panic and Fear... Emotions that I've never experienced before... The thought of losing Scott... It makes me feel hollow and destroyed...

"There is no need to panic. Scott is just learning."

~~~(Location: Pinned against Interface by Nathan Opal using The Force, Mega-Security Ward-23, Belsavis)~~~

There is no way I can break free from my current situation. Whoever this person is, they're incredibly powerful, and not a single thing I do could harm or threaten him. I'm barely able to move my head, but I see him with The Star Cabal Founders. "Where is the main operating base of The Star Cabal? Where are their leaders?" He's after something the founder...

Rewards From Tesha (Page 81)

~~~(Date: February 17th, 2297)~~~

~~~(Time: 8:06 AM)~~~

The onlookers of the fight I just had with the party known as Salamander disperse, and I turn to see Tesha looking at me with a calm smile. Her tobacco pipe is in her hand, and she tries to emphasize her body again. To her disappointment, it still doesn't work. "Let's just get in... You're no fun, Lyatt..." She's sad for some re...

Return to The Nexus of Knowledge (Page 163)

~~~(POV: Scott Autumn)~~~

~~~(Location: The Nexus of Knowledge, Primordium Prime)~~~

The teleporter pops us out in a massive chamber, and almost everything is made of glass. The center of the room has a sort of pulsing energy to it, and I'm captured by the beauty that the glow has. I look at Durado, and he's the same way. "Wow, talk about a place you never thought you'd see..." He's not wrong. I didn't think I'd have another chance to get here so soon.

Aurora pops up in the ...

~~~(Location: Landing Personal Ship in a remote part of Belsavis)~~~

My hands vibrate slightly from the resistance of the engines as we get closer to the ground. The landing is perfect, and the engine turns off. "Belsavis was always an interesting world to me... Its connection to the mysterious Rakatan Empire gave it more depth than the other worlds..." The latch to the back of the ship opens as I approach, and I step on Belsavis for the first time.

~~~(Time: 7:50 AM)~~~

The alarm I set in the system goes off, and I lean up from the bed. I didn't get that much sleep, but it's still enough to function for the rest of the day. "In 10 minutes, Tesha's shop is opening up, that leaves me enough time to have a meal if I want one... But on second thought, I'm not hungry." Since I have this time, ...

Confrontation with The Patient Observer (Page 162)

~~~(POV: Scott Autumn)~~~

~~~(Location: Exiting the Genesis Dimension near Primordium Prime, Immortalitas)~~~

Immortalitas hums slightly as we exit the Genesis Dimension. Power levels across all stations have reached their lowest possible function. "Traveling via Genesis Dimension uses pretty much all our power." Durado loves stating the obvious. This is exactly what happened last time, but Durado was in stasis since he was causing problems. In Aurora's opinion.

Belsavis, The Prison World (Page 94)

~~~(POV: Nathan Opal)~~~

~~~(Location: Personal Ship about to exit Hyperspace over Belsavis)~~~

The multiday trip to reach Belsavis is coming to an end, and I couldn't be happier about it. Being on this ship for long periods of time isn't something I like, and now I get to search on one of the most war-torn worlds in this era of Star Wars. I remember a lot about Belsavis and the many Campaigns that involved it. My memories are being revealed more and more as time goes on.

Now that I'm out of Insects Breeding Grounds, I can use Travelers Compass to get back to Kedwein. I pull the Travelers Compass out of my Inventory, and I select Kedwein. I'm immediately transported to Kedwein, and I look around the Teleportation Platform. There are very few people here and even fewer walking around the stree...

Nearing Primordium Prime (Page 161)

~~~(POV: Aurora)~~~

~~~(Location: Data Storage within Immortalitas, Genesis Dimension)~~~

According to the readings, we'll reach Primordium Prime in the next 10 minutes. I need to go talk with the others before we exit the Genesis Dimension. It takes but a second to reach the Command Deck, and I pop up on the terminal next to Scott. "I was wondering when you'd show up. We're almost there." Scott is excellent at keeping up with me.

Due to him being a Primordium, it helps take...

The Next Destination (Page 93)

~~~(POV: Nathan Opal)~~~

~~~(Location: Personal Spaceship, Hyperspace)~~~

Satele is already on her way back to Coruscant. It seems that Theron pulled a fast one on her and set a deletion program on her datapad after a certain amount of time. "I hope he knows what he's doing... Making your mother mad by deceiving her isn't something sons live to regret..." That's, of course, a figure of speech, but it drives the point across.

I think Theron did it because Satele can't be trus...

I've finally made it to the end of the Dungeon, and getting here was a pain in the ass that took a long time. I've gained 25 EXP towards my Player level and 25 EXP towards Combat Skills Dark Burst, Dread Wave, and Dark Vines. Dark Vines has reached level 7 and has more damage, and the same Mana cost has level 6. I'm gaining m...

~~~(POV: The Patient Observer)~~~

~~~(Location: Primordium Prime, Plero Galaxies Deep Core)~~~

According to the deep space scans, Scott should be arriving here within the hour, leaving me little time to prepare a proper greeting. Last time, I went about getting his cooperation wrong. This time, I need to bring him over to my side willingly. I can't do anything without him. I need a Primordium to activate the Keynote and coordinate the Coda Arrey.

My mind is entirely focused on everything that I've learned from the databanks of Outpost Deep Crystal. My eyes are constantly on the Datapad in my hands. "I'll admit it... Nathan was right about The Star Cabal... More than just right... What should I do with this information..." I'd already have a plan in motion most of the time, but this situation is unique.

Getting through the Dungeon has been harder than I thought. The insects have hit me in large numbers, slowing me down. Making me use a lot of Mana. I've had to stop multiple times just to recharge my Mana pool so I can keep going. The good news is I've gotten 15 EXP towards my Player Level. Black Spear, Dark Burst, and Black...

Plan proceeding forward regarding new story

What we'll do is we'll go on for 20 to 30 chapters, and each chapter is going to be 1500+ words. 

If a majority of people wish for A Chance Again to Return after this point, then we'll place it on hold, and go back to A Chance Again for a while.

I'm by no means abandoning A Chance Again. 

The first chapter for the new story will be uploaded along with The Aeternus Universe on the same day. 

Hope everyone has a great Sunday!!

Question about a new story

I've been thinking and working on a story in my free time. One that I didn't intend on posting and for my own enjoyment. 

If I'm going to post it here, I'll have to stop for one of the current stories. So I'm putting it up to a vote.

Here's the Synopsis I made.

~~~Synopsis~~~  

Zyn Cennen, A Player that held value no one could compete with. The DVRMMO-RPG game Genesis World is coming to an end after a long tenure of 11 years and is being retired.

~~~(Location: Fort Garnick's Cantina, Ord Mantell)~~~

We've made it back to Fort Garnick, and there has been a weird tension between Theron and Satele since their discussion. I'm not getting in the middle of that mess, so Theron and I are having a silent drink as Satele watches us. I can feel happiness in her... Something I haven't felt in a long time when she's in front of me. "Are we going to talk about it? The Star Cabal?" Theron breaks the ice fast. 2022-03-30 16:00:10 +0000 UTC View Post

I'm outside a cave, and its entrance is covered in a sort of slime. There are signs of corrosive damage, but that's environmental storytelling.

I slash through the last person here, and I sense that Theron, Satele, and I are the only ones left alive on base. I take my holo-communicator off my best, and I holo Theron. "What is it?" He doesn't sound happy, but it isn't because of me. I'm willing to bet significant credits that it's all the valuable information on The Star Cabal.
