The Warden of Aeulheim
[Aeulheim] is one of the last surviving keyboard-and-mouse MMORPGs in a world dominated by Virtual Reality a.k.a Full-Dive Games. Due to it's last update, the players magically found themselves residing in the bodies of their game avatars.
With Game Moderators being unreachable and log out function being disabled, the players spent their first few days fearfully trapped in a game they once loved as they witnessed the deaths of fellow players. News soon spread that resurrection is possible. Apparently, they only needed to set cathedrals located in major cities as their spawn point. A few days later, this news was confirmed as a dumb/brave man who ventured too far from the safe zones died and revived on the same night
The confirmation of the revival function brought drastic changes. Players soon became relaxed. They continued hunting monsters and amassing gold while others were killing fellow players and and ruling over NPCs.
While others were engrossed in the game, Blake had long thought that the game had hidden some secrets. The NPCs, The Monsters, The Items, The Players. Everything is linked through the Will of Aeulheim, which is technically the game system. Countless Secrets are hidden on plain sight and the clues can be found with a simple call of the "Status" or "Inventory".
"This is not a simply a game" he said.
Items? Gold? Equipment? Skills? Class? Ranking? Quests? Titles? Soon, most the players will find out that these things are only secondary. They couldn't rely on these things permanently.
Monsters? Bosses? They are nothing compared to fear of changes that came along with the game.
Respawn? Resurrection? Revival? Immortality? Soon, they will despair as they realize that the thing they relied the most on could not even help them against the greatest threat to their very own Existence.

My writing speed is slow and I don't have much time on my hands so I'll only post updates 3x a week. The temporary schedule would be M/W/F. Any updates might be released earlier or later depending on the circumstances.
This is my first writing experience so I'm open to any criticisms and suggestions. Just comment it and I'll do my best to slowly improve my chapters.
Power Stones are welcomed but not necessary. Comments/Reviews are greatly appreciated
