Grand Game 241: A Rude Awakening

I didn’t leave the walled compound immediately.

There was still the matter of where I went from here. I’d spent months in the dungeon and gained much in the process. A new Class. Upgraded...

Grand Game 240: Completing Oneself

I didn’t rush my decision.

I had at least until the day’s end and the sector’s reset, and I was determined to think matters through before choosing. It was a monumental decision and lik...

Grand Game 239: Fate’s Key

Barely taking the time to acknowledge the Game messages, I spun around, ready for the worst. There were still multiple hostiles in the chamber after all, and amongst them were too many wyverns for ...

Grand Game 238: The Statue Garden

Door closed. To unseal the chamber, slay the final sector boss.

Panting heavily, I took a moment to recover as the crystal barricade slid shut behind me. I was trapped in the...

Grand Game Game System Explanations

What do you think of the above tables? Do they make sense, and do they give you a better feel for understanding the Game system?

Grand Game 236: The Realm of Air

I crossed ten more ledges and just as many bridges, zigzagging between the two cliff faces, which I now realized were the two sides of a deep canyon. One whose bottom I could not see.

And whi...

Grand Game 234: Break Out

It’s a day for surprises, it seems.

For a long time, I couldn’t move. Frozen in place and with my attention turned inwards, I replayed the Adjudicator’s words over and over in ...

Grand Game 232: Fighting Hope

I didn’t build a den, not really.

What I did was assemble a second sled with a closed top, tightly insulated with layers of furs and fat. The movable den became Star and her pups’ new hom...

Grand Game 230: Wolf Lord

In the coming days, the wolves and I roamed the icy plains.

The pack was better than me at finding game. For one, they had the numbers for it, and for another, they were more fleet of foot. E...

Grand Game 229: Running with the Pack

They weren’t dire wolves. That much I could tell immediately from size  alone. None of the wolves  stood taller than waist high. They appeared bulkier though, but that could just be a r...

In one sense, it was much like building an igloo, except I filled the inside as well and expanded the structure upward as high i...

Grand Game 227: Bottom of the Barrel

The day passed slowly.

I fell into an easy rhythm, placing one foot in front of the other, while trying to maintain a steady heading. All the while my gaze roved over the horizon, searching f...

Grand Game 226: Fitted for Bear

I woke again a few hours later, yawning and red-eyed.

The events of last night seemed almost surreal, and for a moment I wondered if I hadn’t dreamt it all. But a quick check on the waiting...

Grand Game 225: Frigid Encounters

The bear charged again.

I dove out of the way, and it rumbled past. Staying down, I tried to conceal myself in the snow.

Grand Game 224: The Frozen Wastes

Getting back to my feet took nearly as much effort as slaying the leopard had. The kill had given me new hope though, and I forced my tortured body into motion.
