Arvind Brostfohood, a genius CEO, created Stone of Life Online (SOLO), a VR game revolutionizing gaming with its realism and depth. To explore his creation, he entered the world of SOLO using a developer account granting him unlimited powers. But what began as an experiment turned into tragedy when he lost control of his debug tools and found himself reincarnated in SOLO as a regular character. Stripped of his developer privileges, Arvind must navigate this immersive world, uncover its secrets, and find his purpose—all while experiencing the adventure of a lifetime.

Artie had lived her whole life feeling like a joke. Whether it came to her full name, her parents ‘abandoning’ her and her next door neighbours taking her in, or finding out that her lover was part of a cult and was cheating on her. Said lover then stabbed her. It felt like she just couldn’t catch a break. So when she found herself in a puddle of her own blood, staring up at a fake painted sky, she could only find humour in the situation, and prayed that the next life was kinder. Only she woke up. In the same body, with the same stab wound, only in a world full of magic, swords, and a dead King Arthur? Yup. The round table existed, the knights existed, and so did everyone of legend that she’d heard about as a child. Only it was the beginning of their tales. Nothing had happened yet, except the formation of Camelot, the crowning of the King, and then the sudden death of the King of Legend, King Arthur Pendragon. She would have thought this was another cruel joke if everyone wasn’t wandering around in mourning clothes. If this was a practical joke, it wasn’t a very funny one. Artie was tired. She’d already spent almost a decade working as a police officer, and then a detective, so she felt like she had earned her peace. Especially after all the shit she’d been put through, but someone had different plans. And Artie’s life wasn’t quite done yet. In fact, it seemed like in the eyes of the creatures of this world, this was where she was always meant to be. The time she spent getting her ass handed to her in the other dimension? Just a warm up. And now she was expected to just…go along with what everyone else wanted her to do? Including magical beings who were responsible for taking her from one dimension to another. Artie felt like she was in over her head, even if there were several concerned, attractive knights around her. She wasn’t sure if she was going to run away from all the new responsibilities, or embrace them. She wasn’t a rule breaker by nature, but maybe now was the time to change?

As a Dare Devil, I was constantly seeking thrills that can bring a spark into my Boring life. I came upon the news of a VR Game with the penalty of having a player killed in real life if their in game character dies. I Decided to seek the game out. The name of the vedio game was called Sword Craft. Its a three player game that requires our real information, such as our, Name , Age  Emails and Experience. As we proceed with the game to our surprise we saw something popped up on our gaming screen that said place your hands here. So out of curiosity we followed the instruction. Without knowing we would eventually be sucked into the game. First went Tyler, second was my brother Justin and last was Me. As we entered into the game there was two words needed to start the game, "link start".

The story revolves around "Carsa," a kingdom burdened by poverty and its worship of a sacred black stone called "Aspera." Believed to be a divine blessing, the stone has only brought suffering and sacrifice to the kingdom’s people, including Alfero, the protagonist. Alfero, raised in extreme poverty, loses his father, a guard protecting the stone, and his mother to starvation. His sister, Althea, also falls victim to the kingdom’s misplaced devotion to the stone. Alfero sees the stone not as a symbol of divinity but as a curse that has robbed him of everything. He plans to steal Aspera, enlisting the help of his sister Althea and his friend Ragna. They devise an intricate scheme to create an illusion of divine movement during a religious ceremony, leveraging the kingdom’s blind faith in the stone. The plan succeeds temporarily, but complications arise, leading to Althea’s capture and execution by a divine emissary, Rix. Her sacrifice enables Alfero and Ragna to escape with the stone. At the border, a conflict ensues between Alfero and Ragna over selling the stone. Alfero, consumed by grief and rage, kills Ragna, realizing the stone’s immense but meaningless weight as a symbol of sacrifice and suffering. Alone, he reflects on the devastating cost of his quest, ultimately confronting the futility of the stone’s so-called divine significance. The story ends with Alfero back in his home, holding the stone that has destroyed his life. In a symbolic act, he acknowledges its worthlessness, yet he remains shackled by the weight of its legacy. The stone, embodying a meaningless blessing, stands as a tragic reminder of a world that venerates emptiness at the cost of human life and dignity.

Avery: Aside from his mother, Avery is the only omega in a family full of alphas. As the youngest of four, he was strongly loved and heavily supported as he decided to make a name for himself as an artist. However, rather than filling him with warmth and passion like it once used to, he began feeling empty inside whenever he painted or drew. The night before his freshman orientation at the university he was going to attend, he made up his mind to deffer his enrollment and step away from art entirely. At nineteen years old, this one decision would not only alter the course of his future, but lead him to finding the answers to questions he desparatley searched for, "Why do I paint? Who do I paint for? What am I trying to say?". Even after taking a step back from his greatest passion, art is the only thing he has on his mind. Feeling lost and confused, a seemingly meaningless decision and one unfortunate situation leads him into the arms of an alpha he has never met. Though he was in heat, Avery has never been more sure of anything in his life as he was about this man. This was his alpha, and he would do anything in his ability to make sure it stayed that way. Kai: At twenty-four years old, Kai's life has been nothing but difficult. Having been abused by his mother after his father walked out on them as a baby, he could have easily wound up down the wrong path in life. Instead, despite everything he has been through, he graduated high scool and then went straight to work. Now Kai is a modest owner of a bar, living in a studio apartment and sending what wages he can to the mother who blamed him for her life. Harboring deep seeded guilt for the way his mother has lived, Kai swore he would never get involved romantically with anyone, much less an omega, lest he resign them to the same fate of his mother. However, that all changed when he was walking to work one evening and smelled the frightened pheromones of an omega in heat. He followed the scent to a young and incapacitated Avery, and decided that he needed to help him before things got worse. Carrying him back to his apartment, he did everything he could to reassure Avery and make sure that he was safe. He ran down to the corner store that was right next to his apartment and purchased some inhibitors to help with Avery 's heat... But when he returned he quickly realized that they would not work.

I went to the countertop, I took the knife by the side of the chopping board and started chopping the carrots into pieces. The game froze, this happens all the time for the past few days, but I got used to it. .... Wait, why is it taking too long? The game started to get glitchy, what happened!? Was the disc broken?Does it do something when I throw it the other day? Nonono I can't lose this disc, if the disc is destroyed, then that means Elizabeth and the progress I have done will be gone forever! I started getting dizzy, dizzy in real life. I just walked around my bedroom, Elizabeth continued cooking. She didn't detect what was happening to me because it is happening in real life. I stopped using my leg, I covered my eyes to not see the dizzy. I waited for a moment and took off my hands from my eyes. The dizziness and glitch is gone, damn, what's wrong with this game, it became more severe than before. I went back to the countertop to continue chopping. I took the knife... Something is not right, I looked at the knife, it felt like, I was really touching a real knife. But I am not using those gloves to feel the vibration. I ignored it, I hold the carrot and continued chopping, holding the carrot felt realistic, but I ignored it. I finished chopping it and put it in the boiling hot pot Elizabeth is boiling. The steam that was coming out of the pot felt warm. "Sniff sniff" Why can I smell the food? This should be VR, I am not wearing any machine or thing to smell, and also why does the floor felt real? I went to the door to go to the living room, I touched the doorknob. The doorknob felt cold on my hands, I turned the doorknob and opened it. I went into the living room. The sun rays from the window hit my skin on my arm, I could feel the heat of the sun rays. Something isn't really right here! "Is there a problem my love? You looked like you have trouble" Elizabeth from behind asked "Oh, uhh, just nothing" "Are you sure?" "I am very sure. Oh yeah, I'm sorry but I have to go again Elizabeth. Don't worry, I'll soon come back later after eating, good thing it is Saturday today" "Ohhh, you're leaving again, okay" "Don't worry, I promise I will come back" I raised my arms and grabbed the VR headset on my eyes.... I only touched the air, my four fingers and my thumb met. I tried it again, grabbing the VR headset, there is nothing there! Where is it! This cannot be! It should be here! Nonononono this can't be right. I looked behind me Elizabeth is giving me an evil jolly smile
