“Aren’t the Crush Hold Boarin level ten?” Roxhard asked, giving his axe a flick to get the last of the blood off the heads. “These should have crushed us, not us them.”

“It’s like the Ogres,” Hall said as he looked up into the sky and the circling Pike. The dragonhawk was seeing no more monsters, these three having been hidden in the shadows of the wall before. If there had been more, then they would have attacked by now. “What should have been higher level creatures were lower level.”

“What are you talking about?” Leigh asked.

Hall looked at Roxhard and Sabine, wondering how to explain it to Leigh when he didn’t fully understand himself. You’re a computer program in a game that we’ve been playing for years, only now we’ve been reset to low level again and are apparently computer programs ourselves. That sounded nice and sane, he thought. Surprisingly, she saved him the trouble.

“The Crush Hold Boarin have always been around level four, some getting up to eight or nine, and only the chief’s at level ten. Those ogres were only level three.”

The three players exchanged shocked expressions.

“You know about levels,” Sabine asked.

“Of course,” Leigh answered, her tone wondering just what kind of idiots she had attached herself to. “Everyone does. Everyone has levels, including monsters. Most just end up around three or four, but there are some that get up to the maximum of twenty.”

Hall was shocked. Even though NPCs had levels, it was always for game mechanics only. Their levels only meant how strong they were and remained unchanged.

“You mean, everyone can level up?” Roxhard asked.

Leigh rolled her eyes. “That’s what I said.”

“The only NPC that I’ve heard could level was Bastian,” Sabine said.

“Don’t say that name,” Leigh shouted, surprising them all.

“Why not?” Sabine asked, exchanging confused glances with Roxhard.

“Because,” Leigh started to say before Hall interrupted.

“Wait, you said maximum level of twenty?”

He had been level one hundred in the game, with NPCs in the zones relatively the same level as the Players. One hundred was the maximum level a player could get at that time. Not twenty. That was so low, and most players could get that in a week or two easily. Even casual players could reach twenty in a month.

“Yes,” Leigh said slowly and patiently, like explaining to a child. “I have heard of some getting to level twenty-five but that is extremely rare. I’ve never met anyone higher than twenty and that was only the Great Elder, the leader of the Druid Order.”

Hall tried to digest what he had just learned. The maximum level was twenty, or twenty-five for a select few, and only a few people ever got that high. That part made sense. Most people lived somewhat unadventurous lives. They didn’t quest or fight monsters for experience so they would naturally level slowly. Even guards and others that engaged in combat didn’t do it often enough to really level fast. Only adventurers would do that, and that didn’t seem to be an occupation that many chose in this new world.
