~~~(POV: Lyatt Scott)~~~
~~~(Location: Kedwein, City to the Easternmost Border of the Termal Empire)~~~
~~~(Date: February 15th, 2297)~~~
~~~(Time: 6:03 PM)~~~
Dozens of NPCs and Players are using the Teleportation Gates and Platforms. All of them are heading to different places and doing different things.
My destination is The Town of Bovire and the Epic Grade Dungeon Insects Breeding Grounds near Bovire. Most of the trip can be covered in a single teleport, and for that, I'm grateful. I was not walking 250 miles.
Once I reach Bovire, I'll have a 30-mile walk to the Dungeon. Hence, once I reach Bovire, I'll be staying the night in an Inn and getting back at it the minute the sun rises in Libertas.
Being able to Sleep in-game makes it far more immersive, but I'll have to get off eventually to use the bathroom and eat solid food instead of what my gaming pod is giving me.
My attention falls on the disputes of more Players just about to get in the Teleportation Platform. Platforms transport large groups of Players. Gates transport one at a time.
"We're next! We've been waiting for 10 minutes! It's been long enough!!"
Teleportation Gates and Platforms are used too often. There is a wait time, which is strange given its instant travel.
I walk past and head for one of the Gates. Cutting in lines and getting cursed at, and before anyone can confront me or do something.
I hop into the Teleportation Gate and arrive at Bovire.
There aren't nearly as many Players and NPCs here. Kedwein is far larger than Bovire. A man walks up in fine robes and is holding a coin pouch.
"That'll be 3 Gold."
Not steep, so I hand the price over.
He heads back to his desk, and I head towards the nearest Inn. It's full of Players and NPCs having a good time.
Card games and drinking contests are going on, and as much fun it is to beat some people at cards. I'm not in the mood right now.
"What can I getcha?"
The second I arrive at the bar counter, a man pops up with a smile.
Despite the NPCs knowing we're Players, they don't treat us any differently than they would each other. It's pretty amazing what the system has created here in Libertas.
"A single room and room service."
He says it'll cost 7 Gold, and I hand over the money. He tosses me a key and tells me it's the room upstairs at the end of the hall.
I enter my room and head over toward the bed, laying down in it and staring at the ceiling. I've been doing so much so fast that I need a bit of downtown. And resting in a bed is the perfect way to do it.
"I should order some food... I'm pretty hungry..."
I reach over and pick up the menu. Placing my order, and its sent to the kitchen downstairs using the system.
[Be warned...]
[As our powers grow, so does the fear of those that know of you...]
[Keep growing and growing fast, staying hidden forever is impossible...]
I jolt up as I hear my own voice echo in my head... It's my voice, but not my voice... It's more monotonous and even...
"How are you able to speak with me? You're the Darkness, right? What's going on?"
There is no response, and this isn't the first time this has happened, and the other times it's happened, I've been just as confused.
After a few seconds of silence, I release a sigh and rub the back of my neck. I stand up and take a look out the window.
Players and NPCs are coming and going from the Inn. Some are dancing on the street and having fun, and others are heading home.
The ones coming are looking to get drunk after a hard day at work. It's an incredible sight to take in.
Bovire is a town that doesn't even have walls to protect it, and I find that strange, given that the Epic Grade Dungeon Insect Breeding Grounds is within 30 miles.
"That's something that I don't need to know, but I wouldn't mind knowing..."
The Loremaster in me is always looking for new information and things to learn. Knowledge is power, and I live by that.
