New Game + Start

With the timer having counted down to 0 Zachriel expected to be back in his home on his gaming chair. Having been dressed in a simple t-shirt and boxers he'd trudge over to his bed and wait for his alarm.

Instead when he opened his eyes he found himself hit with an abrupt onslaught of sensations. The scent of the candles, the sound of rain outside, the cushion of his current seat. Before he knew what he was doing his body had already leapt from its chair and he'd taken his simple iron saber halfway from its sheath.

'What the...?' Zachriel blinked and began looking around in confusion. But it was nothing compared to what came next.

"Husband?! What's wrong?!" A voice came from his right.

There he saw Ramnia however she wasn't just standing around like a statue as he was used to. Instead her staff was pointed forward (Not at him his mind noted) with her shield brought up to protect her torso. Her face also, while still appearing stern, also held a look of concern that reminded him of his ...

"Oi! Dad! You ok?!" another voice stole his attention. Following it to his left side he found Zirin hanging from one of the Throne Room columns. Her left hand held a red and blue dagger while she hung from her right hand with both feet planted against her current perch. Similar to her fellow NPC instead of the static expression she typically wore she had a look of confusion on her face.

The Angel player observed that his Royal Guard had also taken on more ready stances. They'd drawn their weapons ranging from sword and shield to tome and one even took what looked like a boxing stance. Unlike his personal creations however they remained silent and were looking all around the room in search of something.

This made no sense! The NPCs here weren't supposed to move unless they were ordered to some how! Moreover Zirin and Ramnia weren't supposed to say the things they'd said! He'd only given them a few generic dialog options that the game supplied!

As observed these things however the world didn't wait for him to catch up.

His second creation stiffened up. The gold and silver haired woman sheathed her dagger before bringing her middle and index finger up to her left ear. After a couple of seconds she had a look of blatant shock on her face before dropping down from the pillar and taking a knee before him.

Zirin spoke quickly, "I just received word from my lieutenant! The City Guard is reporting that the Citadel now has a neighboring settlement several dozen miles away from here! Also the Fire Giants that used to roam outside our walls are nowhere in sight! Finally we seem to be surrounded by ocean instead of magma!"

As she rattled off her information Ramnia's expression became more and more alarmed before her expression went back to her standard expression and focus back on him. "My Emperor! Your orders?!"
