Chapters: 1, 2, 3

Chapter 1: Congratulations Player

Today is the beginning of the exclusive event. It started from a rumor.

New character classes. The fairy classes. One for each of the four races; Akamin, Fangoul, Avinirra and Necrofewnic.

How could I have not been excited.

It had been two years since the developers released an event this big, and I Emmeric Khristiyan was going to be part of it.

Getting all the items was a pain.

The company «Devasura» released all the prerequisite events over the span of a year without saying a word about it.

They gave no information or hints about the event, what-so-ever.

[The Core of a Wisp, the Light of a Sprite, the Bone of a Pixie and the Heart of a Fairy]. Unusual event items, but it sounded about right for this type of event.

I wasn't even sure if I gathered everything. Then two months later I received an email from the creator himself.

"Congratulations player, seeker of the lost. Your curiosity shall be rewarded. Seek the past to know the present which shall lead you to the knowledge of the future. Are you prepared for what will come? Will the fairies reward you or curse you."

-Rin Maurus

Chapter 2: Entrance

The information in the email mentioned a path, and after searching in game and through the web, three days later I found the entrance to some sort of gate.

The clues that were sent to me were vague and mostly unhelpful.

[Beyond the black. The blood of the fallen flame lord. The flower of death. The tree of the king's sleep. In the valley of the fallen kingdoms the gateway lies.

Present the pieces of the fair lords; the soul, body, spirit and life. Step through the whirling madness. Claim it yourself. See the tragedy. Offer tears and prayers. Receive the gift of the fairies and prepare for the future.]

These are the words of the game's creator, Rin Maurus.

I haven't been so confused before in my entire life. The riddle made no sense.

Then as if out of nowhere, I found it.

I stumbled across the answer hidden in the game's lore.

[The Black Woods]

The woods were on a large island off the coast of the Kingdom of Floryre. On the island were the ruins of two ancient kingdoms.

This was the place of death of a hero king.

That is the place I must go to.

Chapter 3: Forest of Death

This forest is no place for the weak.

[A-tier], yellow bar monsters roam the forest.

They can kill a player and destroy their armor, weapons, accessories and earnings, without the chance of recovery.

Most people come to the forest for three reasons.

One, finding rare equipment.

Two, collect materials to forge or improve equipment.

Lastly three, collect large sums of money in a short time.

Most, if not all leave with little to nothing to show for their work.

Without a doubt the one thing about these woods that everyone agrees on, this dungeon is insanely difficult.

Even some of the best players give up within hours having lost more than they earned.

Before heading to the location I prepared my weapons armor and skills for this area.

High defense armor, status effect inflicting specials and weapons, powerful skills to maximize my stats. Powerful healing and restoration potions.

I prepared for a whole week in advance.

None of it mattered, I died over and over, again and again for a whole week straight. I spent all I had trying to find the gate.

I had nearly given up hope, till I noticed something.
