A strange light covered her vision as a shadowy figure in the distance appeared. It began to speak, and it was quiet. She could barely hear it, as she had not respawned yet and probably wouldn’t for a long time. She sat in a white void, and the figure in the distance grew bigger.
A voice then whispered through the air something the survivor couldn’t hear.
Then she heard another sentence.
“.- .-- .- -.- . -. / --- -. -.-. . / -- --- .-. . / .- ... .-.- . -. -.. / -.. . ..-. . .- - / - .... . / -..- . -. --- -- --- .-. .--. ..../”
Then there was some weird whirring. Some essence floated through the void, towards the shadow. The essence was red-purpleish, signaling it was damaged. The only way this could happen is if the implant was damaged on death. The shadow floated to the essence.
The essence slowly flew into the figure’s form. There was nothing there. After the essence disappeared into the shadow, the shadow disappeared too. No light remained.
Then after a few seconds, she felt a surge through her body. Some fuzzing, then some hot material shot up through her veins, to her implant. She was created from some essence, which was purple, and redish. She was inside of a white void.
“Where… what happened?” She said deeply. She gasped as she looked at her body.
“What is this?” She said quietly. Then she heard a voice.
“-.-- / -.. .. . -.. /”
She gasped and looked behind her.
“The… Creator? What… how? Where am I? Uh… I don’t remember anything.” She said. Then the Creator floated to the Homo Deus survivor that had damaged essence.
“-.-- --- ..- / -. . .- .-. .-.. -.-- / - .-. .- -. … -.-. . -. -.. . -.. / ..-. .-. --- -- / - .... .- - / -... .-.. .- … - / -.. .. . -.. / .--. . .-. -- .- -. . -. - .-.. -.-- “ The Creator said. The Homo Deus survivor gasped.
“Can I…” She asked, but the Creator interrupted.
“-.-- --- ..- / -- ..- ... - / .-. . ... - “ The Creator said. Then the Homo Deus survivor dissolved into a ball of deus essence and it flowed into the implant inside her left wrist, then the Creator held the implant tightly and disappeared.
Aberration: Day 2
That afternoon…
Dorack turned his body around constantly inside of Nal’s bed, tossing and turning as he shut his eyes. He had gone to sleep and had woken to a strange vision. He thought he saw the Creator and a survivor who had died for good. Dorack groaned as he continued moving, and then he looked up at the ceiling. He sniffled a bit and moved his hands to his chest, then taking some deep breaths. Dorack’s eyes began to water. Dorack sniffled as he then looked around the place. Sodden was out collecting resources to build their big base to keep them organized for the rest of their adventure on Aberration. Dorack decided to stay back and get a nap and process what happened. But he just couldn’t. Dorack sniffled as he lifted his head and sat up. He then put his head down, lying on his belly, and tears began to roll down Dorack’s face. Dorack turned his head slowly to his implant. He was frozen, crying, and had still not processed what happened.
“I… I can’t believe it. I… how did she even die? I can’t…” Dorack whispered, his voice breaking. He opened his implant inventory and looked through the tribe logs to find Nal’s death message, written in gold. He didn’t know what happened, it just said, “Tribemate Nal (Level 0) was killed!” It didn’t say anything about what or who killed her, other than the blast that supposedly killed her. Dorack was in shock, confused. If Nal had really died permanently, her body wouldn’t have decomposed and it’d still be there. Even if it did decompose, her implant would be left behind. Something wasn’t adding up. Dorack was gasping quietly, then lifted his head and looked to the left side of the bed, where Nal had “died”. Nothing was there. All that was there was some blood on the ground. The bed wasn’t damaged, and neither was the floor. Dorack then got up from the bed then sat down near the small blotch of blood. As he got closer, the blood seemed brighter, and didn’t seem very red. He looked closer, then the blood glowed brighter and more purple than red. Then Dorack noticed something inside the blood. It was very small, only a few hundred micrometers and barely visible to Dorack’s vision. Dorack squinted his eyes towards it. It seemed to be a shard, which seemed to not be solid. It glowed purple and was bright yellow. It usually meant dead essence. If Nal had somehow not died permanently, she probably would soon. But it was just not possible. Dorack was confused, so he moved his hand reached out to grab the shard. Then when he softly put his finger on the blotch of what seemed to be blood, the shard then hummed loudly as it began to grow bigger. Dorack gasped and pulled his hand away, then stood up as the shard grew larger and larger, humming louder and shimmering more brightly. Dorack turned his head away to shield his eyes. Then he heard a small explosion. It caused a small burst of wind which shook some of the crafting stations in the hut. Dorack gasped as he looked back around towards the shard. The shard was weirdly shaped, with what seemed to be thorns sticking out of its front and sides, and its top. It glowed pristine and silver, with purple glowing in it. Then he heard a sigh. Then a human appeared inside of the shard, someone who seemed to be Rod.
“I see you’ve taken my promise. If you really want to protect Sodden, you will not tell him about any of this. Nal will stay dead to him. If you do not heed my warning, the consequences may be fatal to all of you. You have 14 days to bring me every artifact, the tributes, turn in your weapons, and bring me this message so you can show me you got it. If you do not cooperate within this time frame, I will destroy the last remaining shard of her stable essence, and that will kill Nal for good, and for real this time. And I will do the same to you, and capture Sodden and send him to Terad for him to be tortured. Serenity can watch it. I expect you to heed my warnings. I’m watching you.” Rod sneered. Then the human dissolved and the shard flashed brightly before shrinking down to its former size. Dorack gasped and sat down on his bed. “Don’t worry, Rod. Your secret’s safe with me. I will never tell Sodden.” Dorack whispered to himself. Dorack put his head down. At most, he just wanted to protect his other best friend. If he had a choice, he would never keep this from Sodden. But he didn’t have a choice. Rod and his tribe had kidnapped Serenity, set up a scheme to fake Nal’s permanent death somehow, and then threatened Dorack. They were in the crosshairs of the Rock Death tribe, a powerful tribe whose tribemates have implant attributes that are super powerful, and Dorack had to do anything he could to stay safe from them, even if it meant betraying Sodden. Dorack was just too scared of the Rock Death tribe because he heard of what they can do and he refused to let his friends go through it.
Later that day…
Sodden carried a stack of stone, wood, and thatch towards the nearby cliff. He had crafted and constructed a ladder that went down the cliff. Sodden began to craft some foundations, then he put them down around the ladder, and built outwards from the ladder. He constructed a 5 by 8 frame of wood foundations, and Sodden then walked to the trees and continued to break them down. As he chopped the trees down, he heard footsteps. He looked behind him and saw Dorack walking out of the base, holding a hatchet in his hand. He walked toward a rock. Sodden nodded his head slowly. “He’s ready to help with the base now. Good.” Sodden said. He turned back around to continue chopping down trees. Dorack walked to a rock and started bashing his hatchet against it, causing cracks in the rocks. Stones dropped from the rock, along with flint, and Dorack picked them up. Sodden got a tree to fall over, and panted as he walked to another tree. Dorack then finished chopping down the rock and walked to another one. He continued to bash his hatchet against the rocks while Sodden chopped down trees. Dorack lifted his hatchet and looked back at Sodden. Sodden stopped chopping down trees and walked to the frame of foundations, began taking out the wood, and using fiber and thatch to tie the wood together and set it down on the ground, connecting it to the other foundations. He continued setting up foundations. Dorack nodded softly and walked to Sodden.
“Hey.” Dorack said quietly, standing on one of the wood foundations. Sodden looked up at him.
“What?” Sodden asked. Dorack opened his mouth but was silent.
“Uh, nevermind. I’ll keep helping you with the base.” Dorack said.
“Still broken from Nal’s death?” Sodden said. Dorack nodded
“Yes. Anyway, let’s keep working on the base.” Dorack said. He turned around and walked away to harvest some trees. Sodden sighed.
“You can go rest and not help if you want. It’s fine.” Sodden said.
“No, no, I’ll help. I wanna help my friends.” Dorack said. Sodden smiled. Then he continued to construct foundations while Dorack continued chopping down trees.

In the Blue Zone/Red Zone intersection…
Two people sat quietly in a bush. One had a white mask and a black robe, the other had a red mask and a black robe.
“Phase two is soon to begin. You sure you picked up the last traces of Reaper here?” The red mask guy asked. The white mask guy nodded.
“Yes. My attribute can detect the trail of anything. We’ll catch the location of Sodden and Dorack in no time!” The white mask guy cackled.

The Fleet of Fate
Chapter 9: 5/6
“Let’s go tomorrow.” Febreeze said. “Goodnight I’m going to sleep…” Mumbled Coal.
The next morning everybody was awake, except Coal. Glory tried shaking him awake and half asleep Coal said “No, I don’t want more dipping blood on my megalodon. Jeez lady you dont have to push me! Fine I will eat the megalodon in dipping blood.” Finally, Coal woke up. Then, the fleet of wyverns, lead by Rodan, went to the Griffins canyon.
“What are you guys doing here…” Growled a black Griffin with a scar on his eye. “What’s going on? Who are you guys- wait! Never in a million ascensions! Rodan!” Said a brown Griffin. “Lionfeather!” Exclaimed Rodan.
“Wyverns” Snarled the black Griffin.
“Scareye, it’s Rodan, you can trust these guys.” Lionfeather said.
“Why are you guys here anyhow?” Lionfeather asked. We need your help. We need Griffins so we can defeat Ambers army, and Caves.” Febreeze explained “We can’t let them win. They are going to destroy us once one of them has power. And destroy you guys.”
“What about that Scarlet?” Asked Scareye.
“Im right here, I can hear you!” Yelled Scarlet
“Look, I usually don’t talk much because I am shy but we need the whole tribe of Griffins to help us! We will lose some soldiers but it’s better that then everyone becoming tortured by those idiots Cave and Amber. Cave has a weaker army, but lots of them. They’re all bloods so we need to be careful that they don’t use their breath on us. Ambers army is only ember wyverns, they’re strong, but if we can get to Amber they’re helpless, because they only take order from her.” Said Sand
“I like him.” Said Scareye. “Get the tribe!”
