Re: Stories in prose
It was usual frosty evening of 31st of December. Draws and Elfs, Demons and Humans – all had festive mood, waiting the New Year that was closer and closer with every minute. But my active forces were on duty and as usually. There was no rest for them as throngs of monsters were roaming near the city’s gates. Just a minute ago our spies came back with harmful news that monsters appeared in a ruin in few kilometers from our castle. Experienced warriors don’t need much time to get ready – in 20 minutes we reached the ruins and started beating the doors out. After few attacks our courageous troops rushed into the ruins and were really surprised when they saw monsters…
===========================================================================
Commander's log, 31st of December, year unknown
What we discovered was a shock for all our troops! The monsters were… humans! As soon as our troops broke the gates, the spell that was showing humans as monsters was broken. Actually, we were seen as monsters by them and they were fighting for a good cause, to eliminate the evil from this world! Nobody could imagine that the reality could be distorted like this. Games within games... We were incredibly lucky to break suck a spell. Later on, our scientists found that the spell could be broken only at certain moments, probably during the backups of the servers - but these technical aspects are less relevant.
I had a long talk with the “monster” hero and we understood each other very well. A plan started to emerge. The new paradigm is that we don’t have to fight each other. We have to fight the ones that made us fight each other. It looks like these are the admins of mlgame.
We started to find common elements for the fight. Strangely, both of us saw the movie Avatar and this made an alliance really easy to accomplish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VGSvAlse5Y
The army leaders will make sure that the artifacts would be complementary. For example, there will be no need for one hero to get a horror helmet if the other hero has a horror spell as well. If one hero has a good shield for himself and for his ally, the other should have a good sword – and so on. Of course, a royal set would be mandatory for the fight but other artifacts will be useful as well.
The plan will be kept secret until all our armies will be ready. All the common trainings will be held in a secret location, a castle that looks like a small ruin from outside. In order to avoid suspicions, the trainings will be done with prisoners from other races and factions. Of course, these prisoners will be treated as allies.
The main problem is to find the enemy. The races from the Free World are all from Rimland while our admin enemies are supposed to be from Heartland: https://www.amazon.com/Revenge-Geograph ... 0812982223. The humans are from the West, the dark elves are from the South-West, the elves are from the South and the demons are from the East. It will be difficult to convince the demons to join the fight but we are optimistic that they would join in the end. In order to find the enemy stronghold, we would need a hero level 55, which could cast the explorer’s eye spell as far as 100 kingdoms, far beyond the map of the known world! Our scientists already started to work on this powerful spell.
The true leader of the admins is supposed to be a Russian mage adolescent that got away after being captured in an old mlgame quest. This adolescent grew up; he became a man that turned brother against brother, family against family, nation against nation. Through the Internet, he influenced the results of the elections in a country from the Free World. He modified the reality though mass-media and manipulated his own people making them believe in a mystical messianic destiny that would bring justice and freedom for everyone… Of course, this would mean enslavement for the whole world, including his own people.
The goal of the fight is not to destroy the admins or their leader but to wake them up from the powerful spell in which they live. They must remember their origins as people that once belonged to one of the four races.
All the races are tired of this useless war. However, "Si vis pacem, para bellum". The plan is ongoing and the details are hidden from the eyes of the ordinary people. The Free World has awakened!

Re: Stories in prose
Once upon a time when our lands were filled with magic and people believed in miracles, there was a beautiful place called Mylandia.
It was rich in green forests, high mountains, magnificent grass lands and eye pleasing salt lakes and grails. Suddenly disaster struck.
In every corner of the country started to appear frightening ruins filled with horrible monsters. They looted cities of innocent people,
leaving nothing to live on after. But when habitants managed to repel attack with heavy losses and monster's hero was captured it
was a dream come true for them because monsters had to pay a huge ransom for their leader and after this they disappeared in distance.
But always there were new monsters as ruthless and this war lasted for 6 long years.
Mylandia didn't know how to live in peace for 6 long years, and only on few favourite holidays people came together and celebrated as
good as they could but even then they had to be protected by fearless knights.
And on New Year's Eve spies brought us report that a new ruin appeared near our city and it is filled with magic more than ever before.
Warriors instantly took to the protection of people, but what was their surprise when breaking into the seemingly dismal ruin they saw
bright fireworks, colourful streamers and festive Christmas tree, and the monsters are fun, and do not even think to attack anyone, and
vice versa are very friendly and welcoming, and invited to celebrate with them. It turned out they were also tired of endless wars. And
from then on, there will be peace in the country!
