The Talisman Adaptation

The Outcast: The Shadow of The Wall

"As the Supreme Commander of The Wall, my duty is clear: to hold back the threats from the south—mutant monsters, ogres, cyclops, or... hopefully not... the return of the orcs. The kings and lords of Middle Earth do not care. To them, we are just a bunch of 'Outcasts,' exiled criminals and soldiers pushed to the margins. That’s fine. It's better if they stay out of our way. Corrupt politicians rarely care about real security." He looks down at the Outcast barracks below, where the central headquarters commands the entire Wall, separating the south from the main continent. Wisps of smoke rise from the kitchens, carrying the scent of salty, stale soup. The Outcasts atone for their sins or suppress their grief through dangerous missions in exchange for a few gold coins, following the rigorous standards set long ago. Such is life at The Wall. "I, Oldman, am not a religious man. But I interpret the legacy of past eras as a reminder: The world has never truly been at peace. The evil forces of all ages—fragments, orcs, or dragons—will always lurk. Humans, dwarves, elves, whoever they may be, could end up killing each other, driven by cunning deceit. And now, the only barrier holding back the southern threat is The Wall... and us, the Outcasts. Perhaps history will remember us as nameless heroes, or perhaps it will forget us. But as long as I stand here, I will not allow the monsters from the south and other darknesses to spread across the continent again." "I am Oldman... In a world that has cast us out, we stand amidst the darkness. We have no land, no name, only this path. We are the shadows behind this wall. We are the forgotten guardians of the world. We are the Outcasts, and we will endure, or die on our path."

The Last Stand: The Fool and the Regressor

The apocalypse is here, and it’s so overdone. Monsters? Check. Burning sky? Check. Random system that gives you powers but also wants your firstborn? Double check. In the middle of this mess are two guys who couldn’t be more mismatched if they tried: The Fool: A guy who’s spent his life perfecting the art of doing nothing. His resume includes “professional procrastinator”, “class clown”, “expert nap taker”, etc... Now he’s got to survive an apocalypse that didn’t even give him a heads-up. How rude. The Regressor: A guy who’s lived through the end of the world more times than he can count. Literally. Because he forgot. Now he’s just a brooding mess with a leather jacket and zero useful advice. When the fool realizes his classmate is a regressor, he’s like, “Great. I’m stuck with the guy who’s seen it all but remembers none of it. This’ll go well.” Yet, they will still group up and face trials that test their sanity more than their skills. But as the so-called End demands more blood and the regressor’s memories start to resurface, they realize the real apocalypse might be their inability to agree on where to hide. Fool: "Let’s hide in the basement!" Regressor: "Basements are death traps. We should go to the roof." Fool: "Roofs are for dramatic exits. I’m not dying for aesthetics!" Anyway, can a lazy dreamer and an amnesiac hero save the world? Probably not. But hey, at least they’ll have a good story to tell—if they survive. ________ __ Please note that this story is a work of fiction and a product of the author's imagination.

Keeper System: "Adapt. Evolve. Survive." — the Keeper's creed.

~WSA 2025 ENTRY~ .................................. Died on the battlefield at the age of 25, Reece Vaughn got a second chance in his life — reborn as a 16-year-old three centuries into the future. The world has gone through an inexplicable change by then. The Great Awakening happened, and it left widespread consequences — the emergence of supernatural creatures and the sudden grant of extraordinary powers to some humans. With the sudden gain of extraordinary powers, the human population went astray — some sought resorts, while some started manipulating their powers to satisfy their own greed. As a result, in just a few years, the world teetered on the brink of collapse. Amidst all the chaos and turmoil, the Keeper System arose; to restore the fragile order of balance, nurture the Keepers (or peacekeepers) - a group of awakened humans, and bind the world in a close knit. Thus began the journey of the Keeper System, shrouded in mystery; visibly invisible. Reborn in a world completely different from his own, Reece was astonished! And before he could comprehend anything, he died! Again, for the second time. But, did his journey end even before he started? - Well, NO. He was given another chance to have a fresh start, forgetting everything about his past life; now chosen as a future Keeper. In this life, born in a world where fantasy and humanity coexisted, Reece had to deal with all the hardships, confront everything that came his way, and ascend through the ranks to achieve the coveted SSS rank and become a legendary Keeper. Reece's journey started now. Was it all about only achieving the SSS rank? -No. As he navigated his new life, truths came before him, which shook his foundation! The truth about him, his existence, the organization, the new world, the architect hiding behind a mask whose one wave of hand could change everything! His journey threw him into a complex maze he could never have imagined. ..... Welcome to the world of Keeper System, welcome to a tale of adventure. The novel will be updated daily. There will be more leads alongside Reece; as the story progresses, I'll introduce them one by one to prevent overwhelming you with so many characters at once. Reece's journey will go through a significant development— starting from a relatively powerless individual. I hope you'll like it. And if you like it, consider adding to the library and vote.
