    Summary

    “Then it's settled.” Joel nods, pulling the bottle back out and quick to refill everyone's glasses. “We keep our doors open, so when that detective finds us…well, he'll get the full force of what we have to offer.”

    “He’ll learn the rules.” Gem grins, almost giddy. “One way or another.”

    Etho doesn't look so sure but Joel tugs at his sleeve, whispering something into his ear before planting a small kiss on his cheek that at least gets the lines on his forehead to settle. This time Cub starts the toast, raising his glass up and prompting even the hesitant Etho to do the same.

    “To what we can't talk about.”

    “To what we can't talk about!”

    Summary

    Grian has been many things.

    A servant of a respected noble family. A survivor, with bruises on his skin and hidden wings tied down to his back. A rebel, sneaking away for a night of wonder in the heart of the kingdom - and a curiosity, gawked at by all as the King himself swept him into his arms and spent hours by his side.

    When Scar spent days tracking Grian down and helping him escape the cruel grasp of the Watchers, Grian thought his life couldn’t surprise him anymore. Pledging his life to serve Scar was all he could do to thank his King.

    Of course, being the personal servant of the King comes with its' own risks - and now Grian could add ‘hostage’ to his list of titles.

    Or; someone decides kidnapping King Scar’s beloved servant was a good idea. It really wasn’t.

    Summary

    “Alright.” Joel had been quiet since the mention of the watchers, and when he spoke now he sounded tired. “So, the Watchers took us all and dumped us on a random server with no clear way to leave, is that about right? And we have life game mechanisms in place.”
    “Sounds about right.” Grian nodded wearily.
    “Well, fine. All we need to do is be careful and not die, yeah? Seems simple enough. Just focus on staying safe, gearing up, and trying to get home. And the admins will surely be looking for us.”
    Grian looked around at the birch clearing, then up at the sky, sun blazing overhead. “I mean, it sounds fine in theory… but these are the Watchers we’re talking about. Who knows why they sent us here. And surely they have some sort of trick up their sleeve.”

    OR,

    Twelve players find themselves stuck on an island filled with unknown mobs and life-game mechanisms. How are they gonna get themselves out of this one?
