Game of Shadows and Secrets - Part 3

Ajax looted the orc. He'd been farming the ugly green skins for longer than he'd like to admit.

"Oh joy. Another tusk to sell." Ajax watched as an eighth stack of one hundred started in his inventory.

He, Sky, MissyQ, Adriana, and Daphne had escaped Tyren with a literal castle full of loot two days ago. Ajax didn't feel one bit guilty about all they’d taken; the royal family had imploded with no small amount of help from Richard.

With his criminal status removed once they had completed the dungeon, they had wasted no time in leaving Tyren and the mess it had become behind them. The forums painted the city as pure chaos. The royal family was all assumed dead, leaving dukes springing up like weeds, offering players nearly endless quests to kill rivals or campaign for them.

More than a few disgruntled players were posting on the forums asking what to do now that a particular noble who'd given them a quest was dead. There was no respawning for the NPCs.

When the forums weren’t discussing the quests, they were filled with rumors of how the royal family had died. The current running theory was that there was a battle between demons and angels, and there was a game-wide manhunt for any perpetrators who escaped.

Richard had pinned that squarely on Ajax’s back.

Ajax tried to ignore the constant chatter on the forums, working to focus on his own issues. Their group of five had spent their time since leaving Tyren working to level up as quickly as they could as they prepared for the upcoming convention. Ajax was so close to joining a professional team; he wasn’t about to let up on the work now.

They’d been training and hunting together, but at the moment, Ajax was alone. The girls had logged off for the day to prepare for the convention in the real world.

"System, how much longer do I have before I need to go?"
