What's left in the end.

>>679202
Boy.

One who fucking refuses to let the wonders of humanity die from the heat of an expanding sun. This world is a gem in a sea of extreme loneliness. If anything remains of the Earth, you're going to save it.

>>680757
Sure.

>>679202
>Boy

>>679202
>boy

>>680757
You're a boy.
Now names are something that people say haven't changed. Names are something we hold dear. What's ours?

>>681236
Alexander

>>681332
This

Alexander will preserve Humanity.

>>681236
I'm OK with Alexander, could we go by Alex to keep it short with people we know?

>>681236
Alex.

That's your formal name. Your birth name. You were named Alex probobly after another loved one. Unbeknownst to you there was once another mortal who carved his name into history for eons.

People say you're not really dead until you're forgotten or your descendants are all gone. In this way Alexander is dead. But in another way he's still there living in you even if you don't know it.

Maybe this time people won't forget you.

where are you from?

you're from the grien valle. It's really the "emerald valley" or "green vale", but overtime and not being able to progress past a kindergarten level of reading leads to a strange spelling.

It's all farmers there. People come from all over to get food in exchange for necissary goods, like metals, concrete, and manufactured goods. There's a few other professions around, and the socially decided rulers from each faction lead a council. Anyway where are you from?

>merchants
>city guard
>farmer
>artisan
>scavenger from outside the vale whose visiting

>>682306
>>city guard
whats the tech level atm, mostly scavenged and reforged steel tools?

>>682315
I'm down for the guard. Simple is simple does

>>682306
>merchants
A man with wealth may go far and a man who makes his wealth is a man of ambition, who will go further. Much is required to be a merchant, from courage, to cunning, to wisdom and even (though some will doubt it) compassion for your fellow men and women.

>>682306
>>city guard

>>682315
tech level is probably medieval level. There's not really mining, just trying to use old metal structures into forgable metal. It's so old and burried under rubble it can be like actual iron ore from age.

>city guard
You lived in the main village your whole life. You don't see much action because it's a peaceful settlement. However a few years ago the town was attacked by a group of starving nomads from the desertlands.

You were walking through the streets with a:
>spear
>bow
>sword
>club
>sling
>no weapons

When you hear screaming so you:
>run towards to help
>run away to get help
>run away to avoid work
>quietly see what's happening

you remember clutching your spear and barreling towards the enemy. But once you reached them you see 3 men in furs beating on one merchant. There are many ways you could attack, but you should probably attack the way that fits your physique and personality the best.
>barrel through them with the power of a tank, you're so strong you can't even feel the hits, but they can dodge you due to your slower speed.
>run around and spear them, dark souls style. But if you get hit your gonna feel it a couple days
>convince the others to help you out, you're no good in a fistfight
>just run in and hope for the best, it always seems to work out somehow.

>>683250
>>barrel through them with the power of a tank, you're so strong you can't even feel the hits, but they can dodge you due to your slower speed.

Now just a matter of getting our hands on a halberd down the line.

>>683311
You run straight into the mix and tackle two of them to the ground. People shreik and run away as the third man pulls out a knife. You ignore him and smash his face in with the long end of your spear.

When it's finally over you notice that you have a knife in your side. You pass out.

That was a while ago. Anyway what's the plan for the day?
>write in

I take it we're off duty? Well, lets carouse with some of the other guards.

About how large is the settlement here? I'm figuring the population is mostly rural

Rolled 6 (1d10)

>>684608
I'd say less than 10,000 main city including rural farmers.

Night watch pays higher for good reason:

less than 6 event

Night passes uneventfully

you wake up and feel worse than when you went to sleep. You have a trip coming up in 2 days to the borders of the city. In that lapse you have to go to work, but tomorrow you have the day off to prepare.

do we work:

>in the market
>in the whorehouses
>at the entrance
>farms

>>685740
>>artistocrats

Might do well to learn a thing or two about the well to do, sure they got deep pockets too.

>>685790
you put on your nicest boots and head over to the hill on which the influential reside.

The rich in reality aren't much different than the poor in looks. They have more money but what can that buy? More food? More children? There aren't really any fine goods that are imported, mainly just raw materials that can't be found in the vale. So how can they rise above the rest of society? Knowledge and personal betterment. Sounds philosophical right? Wrong. Personal Betterment just makes them think that they ARE better than everyone else and gives them a sense of right. Not agreement, contract, or even privilege. RIGHT to control the masses. Men and Women generally have the same rights, but the top and bottom classes are based on wealth and proved by a "sneering-imperialist" attitude.

Anyway. You put on your best clothes and hope for a tip. But due to personal experience you know that it's unlikely. They always tell you:
"oh you're not doing your job!" "Why can't you follow the simplist orders?!?" "what do you even do here anyway?"

Thinking of that...What DO you even do anyway?
>bodyguard for the head of household
>guard for entrance

You scramble over as fast as you can, trip on a pelt rug, and fall flat on your face.

"you know what remove your presence my sight. Go find my daughter and son and bring them here. Now 2 things. Ask me why I want them and you won't have a job here until your greatgrankids are grandparents. Next, if you get them here in...ooh 20 minutes I'll let you take one thing from my armory for your contract outside city limits. By the way. Good luck."

He laughs and walks sits back down and the desk.

Well that was...awkward.
well wat do?
>go get daughter
>go get son
>ask him a question

>>686123
>>go get son

>>686146
You dash into the son's room. At the other side of the mansion. If only you weren't so slow. The door's locked. Without thinking you break it down. And you see...

"HEY WHAT'RE YOU DOIN' HERE ASS?

who is it dearest?

Don't worry baby. HEY ASS, GIVE ME TEN, no, FIVE, no TWO MINUTES AND I'LL GO MEET MY FATHER, I KNOW HE WANTS ME.

Well i guess thats done. What's next?

You have 10 min to spare. You head back to the office. But the son is nowhere to be seen. That bitchy daughter has stopped screaming at least. Now what?
>find son
>hope him makes it in time
>drop bitch girl on the dam rug

>>686306

>>686306
You dash back to the room. You counted your breaths to help judge time, you breathed exactly 92 times on the way there.
