Leona Lewis I Keep Bleeding

#Cyberpunk #GameLit #Lesbian #Queer A game so immersive that you feel every cut, hear every arrow whizz by, and even smell the burning forests after a raid. It's the perfect escape from a harsh, unforgiving reality. Lucy dives into Gates of Baraadon, a VR massively-multiplayer online roleplay game (MMORPG) that fully engages the senses via a direct neural link to the brain. But when her closest in-game ally is killed in a sudden, shocking battle, Lucy is left reeling. Back in the real world, emotions from the game refuse to fade away. She’s about to discover that this world isn’t just about levelling-up but surviving when the boundaries between game and reality bleed into one another. If Ready Player One and Lord of the Rings had a love child together and it was raised by William Gibson and Sword Art Online; Reality Bleeding would be it. In this debut novel by Charli Kou, they ask – when a game is so intense that it feels real - what happens when you can't switch off? Exploring the complexities of love, loyalty and intimacy in a dangerous technologically advanced and morally ambiguous world - Reality Bleeding embraces the core of Cyberpunk - by examining the human condition in the face of radical technological and social change.

"Never fall alone." Taking those words to heart, was a young soldier. The battle stormed on as reinforcements from both sides arrived. Left and right, allies and enemies alike, fell. Before long, each side was exhausted; the atmosphere was moist in blood, and the air stenched of corpses. The young soldier shouted out in determination as he realized his allies were losing. The young soldier and fellow soldiers watched as his enemies shouted gleefully; reinforcements had come. The battle would not end to their liking. "For the kingdom!" A friendly soldier shouted. "For our friends!" Another voice screamed. "For our families!" One echoed. "For our lives!" One ended. Then, the chanting soldiers were plowed through, limbs dismembered, heads decapitated, and lives destroyed. But still, the young soldier stood strong; his sword was tall, and his spirit was wild.

Why, why did it feel as though he was forced to either bleed himself or spill the blood of others to live? Enough… he had enough.
