Chapter 1: A New Dawn

Leah logged on for the first time in days, and a flood of system messages greeted her.

The phrase “in days,” hardly seemed long, but after logging on almost every day since the game’s launch, a break of just a few days felt like an eternity.

The system messages were intriguing. She quickly responded “yes” to the one dev message addressed personally to her, then sat up in her bed.

It was a strange feeling. How long had it been since she last logged out in a proper bed? It must have been since the closed beta. Ever since early access, she had slept on that rocky throne of hers. She’d thought perhaps those wings of hers might suffer in a sleeping position, but they wrapped around her nicely and didn’t seem any less worse for wear.

Suddenly, the door to her room swung open.

“Hey, Leah. Short time no see. Or suppose I should say ‘good morning,’ as it’s about time to get out of bed.”

“Morning, Lyla. Ever heard of knocking?”

They were in a guest room in the Oral royal castle. As all the remaining royals and kingdom administrators were now under Lyla’s control, Leah didn’t have to hide herself here. In fact, the fact that the current regime was in cahoots with the Seventh Cataclysm was a bit of an open secret in the castle.

Showing herself to any NPC that wasn’t bound by Retainer would still be a big no-no, though.

“Did you see the system message?” Lyla asked.

“I saw many system messages,” Leah replied.

“The FAQ laying out the requirements for a kingdom’s destruction. So the artifacts aren’t tied to royal rule. That means we can do whatever with them, right?”

“I guess so. But first, how exactly is ‘royalty’ defined? Succession rights?”

“Maybe. Then, if the current regime names me the successor, I become a royal?”

They both paused, imagining the possibilities. If that were true, their options would explode. But that would be nigh impossible to determine. They’d have to name Lyla successor, then wipe out the royal family. And if they were wrong, they’d just have trashed another kingdom with nothing to show for it.

“Maybe, but we can’t test that. The risk is too high.” Leah said. “Wait, can we even kill them in the first place? They’re all your retainers.”

“To remove retainer status...you have to contact support. That means NPCs are just stuck being retainers forever?”

It sounded like a question the answer to which only the devs would know.

“But we can’t ask the devs questions willy-nilly,” Leah said. “We don’t want to chance our secrets being put on blast on the official FAQ. Considering the absence of players with similar play styles on socials, they must be keeping quiet too, pretending to be NPCs like us.”

Or they were players like Blanc: Players who enjoyed the game for what it was and didn’t have a habit of engaging with online content outside of it.

“Blanc,” Leah muttered under her breath. “Right. I should go say hi to her. She probably got a message from the devs too.
