Its Just A Game

You are the heart and blood of a nation you are the common people.

You kill someone you are a Murderer.

You save a life you are a Hero.

You rob a merchant you are a Bandit.

You control a nation you are a King.

You kill a deer to feed your family you are a hunter.

You live secluded on a mountain you are a hermit.

You work for a nation Expanding and protecting its border you are a soldier.

What do all of these have in common yet why are they so different why do you desire to be a king, a soldier, Merchant or even a saint. It's that simple but plague like desire, for more in life and if you can't reach that something more you will pass on the desire to your children and then they pass it to there children until they finally complete that desire then that desire will change from becoming, to be the best.

That Simple desire pushes every single person in some way or another toward its goal it may not be your goal but the one planted in you by your parents or your grandparents festering like a disease never to leave you always there even when you think it's no longer influencing you even when you have a new desire. That plague like desire will stay with you till you die not letting you leave its grasp and only your children may end up being free from that desire only for a new one to take hold and repeat the never-ending cycle. But this isn't a bad thing this is what drives us forward to achieve something in life many will never realize there desire many will die trying only for a few lucky one to make there desire a reality.

We have been waiting here on the beach for about an hour now. We didn't just do nothing while waiting here we have walked along this beach marking areas where we could build the mine. and we even found some pretty interesting shells like this (Gem of the ocean). There is only one problem with the gem of the ocean and that is everything besides the name is covered in ???. I wonder if I am too low lvl to view it or is there a different reason.

{Bob you can view any items quality rarity and description no matter what lvl the item is even if you don't own the item meaning there is a restriction on the information on this item. Also, Bob, you should check out the store sometime soon as it seems you have completely forgotten about it.}

Thanks, Tik and I will check it out once we get back to Sanctuary. As right now is not the best place.

Ok, so we got a bunch of fancy shells and some fancy rock we got a pearl with I can't know anything about I say this is a pretty good hall so far.

“Ok everyone we are gonna have to set up a shelter soon as it is getting late into the day and I have no clue if they are gonna come back today so I say we set up a shelter not far from here so if they come back. Anyone got a problem with that?”

Cilys stares at the water for a good 30 secs turning towards me.

“We should set up camp about 100 or so meters away from the shore so that we are in the line of sight of them but also it will give us a little time to prepare if they come with the intentions to attack us.”

“You are right. So we will move 100 meters away from the shore and set up camp there. but While we are camping here I want everyone to work on something if it's from searching for something unique, Training a skill or hunting I want everyone keeping busy and trying to increase your personal strength or our settlements.”

After I finish speaking everyone walked 40 meters out before Hemph made his appearance at the surface of the water Striding out with two heavily armoured men from his tribe and a person carrying a large box.

“Lich, I have come to talk to you about Peace among my tribe and you.”

“Well Lich is better then monster I guess and it is true but could you just call me Bob. Also, I am all up for peace but how are we gonna go about this I am a leader of a settlement and you are the coastguard captain. Don't get me wrong I am willing to talk with you just curious if you can talk with me for your tribe or you want me to go into the sea. I kinda can't breathe underwater.”

“Let me reintroduce my self Bob the Lich. I am Hemph First son of the Great Chieftain of the Lowtides tribe. Giving me the authority to negotiate with you and I have been given my fathers blessing to negotiate with you.”

At least I am getting places with my name he finally called me Bob but the 'the Lich' part wasn't really necessary but we will get there.

“Ok, so how about I meet you half way. as I don't like that black shadow that is shooting about in the waters.”

“That Is just Tren my father sent him to protect me in secret but as you can see he is not the best of hiders especially when he is near the surface of the water. I see with no problems with meeting you halfway”

As I am walking forward one of the pulls out staff and starts chanting something. Causing me to back away towards Krenzek and Cilys at a reasonable speed.

“Bob the Lich you have nothing to worry about he's just Checking for any hidden undead around us, You don't have anything to worry about. Well, you don't have anything to worry about as long as you aren't planning anything.”

Well I can see I have seen a whale glare and it is one weird experience I can't even really see his eye and yet out of nowhere they disappear only leaving a small Blackhole were the Pupil is.

“Ok, but I am gonna wait for him to finish as I am somewhat an Undead myself and I don't want to find out if that spell effects me.”

So 2 minutes have passed but they seemed to have taken an hour of just purely awkward silence as the Gaurd with the staff checked the area till he declared it as clear. Before we both walked toward each other. I gotta say tho I think he went about 30 meters by the time I reached 10 but that doesn't really matter.

“So let's get started. Hemph what do you get out of allying with me and I get out of allying with you.”

“Bob the Lich we wish to not have to have any more enemies and we want you to agree to a couple of terms.”

Hemph wave to the Person carrying the chest. The person walks over before putting the chest down and digging around in a small bag that was practically invisible with the chest in his arms. After about 5 seconds of digging, he pulls out a piece of paper with an orangeish tint and hands the paper to Hemph for Hemph to hand me the paper.

[I ______ Declare I will not turn any of lowtide tribes people into undead. Any that are or will die are to be left to there eternal slumber unless given permission by the deceased person to raise them as an undead. I will aid the lowtide tribe in times of need no matter the circ.u.mstance.]

“So you want me to leave you're dead alone and help you when your people need help and I get squat?”

“Turn the paper around there will be what we are offering to you is on that side.”

And just as he said there is a list of Materials and some other thing some of which I have never seen before.

I guess this isn't that bad of conditions and they are giving us quite a bit of loot and I was never on raising there dead. But at the same time, this seems a little fishy. Meh, I am just probably over thinking This.

“I guess I can agree to this so all I have to do is sign this.”

“Yes you just have to sign the blank and I have to sign at the bottom and it will be complete.”

As Hemph finishes writing his name the Contract rips in half and before quickly wrapping around my and Hemph's arm then Disappearing.
