The Rise Of A Tribal Deadbeat

Zok was the youngest son of the Chieftain of the Zukira tribe. But that was all he had going for him. To everyone else, he was known as the tribal deadbeat. Unlike his father and elder brother, he had no talents whatsoever and spent most of his days sleeping and eating. In a tribe full of great warriors, his existence was frowned upon. No one wanted to associate themselves with him. Until one day a mysterious cave appeared in the Zukira territory. The sudden appearance of such a cave wasn't a surprise as it was a common occurrence. These caves often had weird markings on them according to which the tribesmen classified them into different difficulties. This particular cave, however, was peculiar because it didn't have any markings on it. Thus the tribesmen decided to send in Zok along with a couple of others to go and investigate the cave. Zok was reluctant to do so but was forced by his family and under their pressure, he had to go in. The trio went inside the cave which turned out to be empty. There were no monsters inside, which was peculiar. The only thing inside was a pond filled with acid. Zok went to check the pond out but a moment later, he was pushed inside it. No one knew that the ones accompanying Zok were the ones who would try to kill him. However, instead of dying inside the pool of acid, Zok obtained a newfound power. A power that would forever change his destiny. Follow him on his journey for revenge, in the epic story: The Rise of a Tribal Deadbeat. *** Cover by: Joelin Tan

Time To Leave

"Why am I back in the desert?" Zok mumbled as he looked around himself.

He was back in the desert alright, but he didn't have any recollection of how he got there. None whatsoever. On top of that, he was all alone... consumed by the vastness of the place. This was even more peculiar since he wasn't foolish enough to go somewhere as dangerous as the desert without the help of his pets and Shira. 

However, as he began thinking about it more and more, he started to forget about... everything. It started with his adventure of the cold lands, then he forgot about Cero, Shira... and even Kaira. As he forgot about them, the scenery around him changed as well. 

The desert slowly transformed into the settlement Zok grew up on. But this time, the behaviour of everyone around him was different. They no longer saw him as a burden but with respectful eyes. There was no sign of the shamans or his father.
