“Wait, I know how to get some money!” Kimberly exclaimed, leaping up out of her seat.
“Is it legal?” Dawn asked mildly.
The healer’s brows furrowed adorably for a moment as she seriously considered my girlfriend’s question. “I think so?”
“What do you mean?” I...

A knock at the door woke me from my blissful sleep, and with a growl, I called, “Who is it?”
“It’s Kimberly!” a feminine voice called through the door, so cute and sweet when compared with her real life one.
Beside me, Dawn grumbled and called, “Come in!”
My eyes w...

When I explained the situation with Paisley to my mum, she all but forced me to rush back into the game. Before I left, though, we discussed her joining the game too. She said she was too old to run around fighting people. When I pointed out that she wasn’t old anymore, she grumbled and told me...

We got to the dungeon hub an hour before lunch and found it packed with people. Like all the other buildings in the city, it was constructed of carefully interlocked stone blocks, with a dirt and grass roof high above. It was a huge multi-tiered arena-looking place, with stairs leading up the int...

I left the shop deep in thought, trying to figure out how I was going to move and store that many bricks. I could always throw them out, but that seemed like a waste of resources that might come in handy in the future.

As soon as Paisley saw me return to the tree, she threw herself bodily into my arms. Her eyeliner was a mess, and the inky black tears stained her cheeks.

“Wait, you didn’t bring any iron?” Paisley asked, amused.
“The book says it needs to be ‘iron from the earth’, whatever that means,” I explained, not at all amused. I didn’t realise how much of a problem this would be. How was I so good at planning out a fight, but non-comba...

Our hilarious and extremely odd conversation had dulled our gamer senses to the danger right in front of us. I stepped out towards the tree, still shaking my head with amusement, when the tree shifted slightly.

“So, that’s the tree?” Paisley asked in a whisper.
We were hunched close together inside a bush, peering out from behind the leaves at the massive twisted willow tree at the center of a clearing. It towered up to forty meters high, but if it had been hair, its “curls” would have p...
