~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: Flying To The Eastern Sea of Relsarmoder)~~~
~~~(Time: 8:18 AM)~~~
Sally has slept through the night, and I\'ve continued flying. Another few more hours, and we\'ll be reaching the Ocean of Relsarmoder. The reason it was named Relsarmoder is a lovely little tale. The first people to explore and cross the ocean were a family of adventurers.
The Relsarmoder family has explored many different parts of Gaia, but the only place named after them is The Sea of Relsarmoder. From what I remember about their lore, they were the first family many thousands of years ago to make friends with The Elves and their Kingdom.
Opening up trade that didn\'t exist at the time and helped connect The Elven Kingdom with the rest of the world at the time. I don\'t know the exact amount of years this occurred, only that it was a long time ago.
"I should get into contact with Hailey and congratulate her for killing a King. Most would say that\'s a bad thing. But only if the King you\'re killing is a good one."
The World Wide Announcement regarding her feat didn\'t go unnoted. She\'s probably already got messages from everyone else in our family.
I\'m not sure what her motivations are, but it\'s not that big of a deal whether they were pure or not. I\'ve killed Kings before, and I\'ve done it for purely personal gain. I may be an Angel, but I\'m still half-human. The part of me that allows me to do the things I do.
I haven\'t decided if I should just keep flying once we reach the ocean or if I should stop a final time in the nearest city to the coast and rest before the trip. It\'ll be around 20 hours of continuous flight to get across, and I\'ve already been up all night.
In the end, I need mental breaks too. Even if I weren\'t physically tired, I\'d be mentally exhausted. Pacing yourself is important.
But in the meantime, I\'ll talk to Hailey until I reach the city closest to the coast of The Sea of Relsarmoder. I open my Player Interface and click on the Friends Tab. As I hit Hailey\'s name, a keyboard pops up with a box to send a message.
I see our past conversations above, and they\'ve been more serious than those I\'m about to send.
[It\'s about time I get ahold of you and congratulate you for killing a King. It\'s an impressive feat that only two Players have done so far. I was the first, and now you\'re the second. Who knows, it might become a family tradition at this point.]
I send the message and close my Player Interface. She\'ll get back to me when she sees it. Knowing Marcus, he\'ll want to follow in his older sibling\'s footsteps.
In regards to Mom and Dad, I doubt they\'ll be interested in killing Kings. From the last I heard, they\'re off on their own adventures now. Making up for the lost time between just the two of them without any of the kids around.
Marcus proved that he could handle himself, and I know that it probably put Mom in shambles not having to take care of one of her kids anymore. But she\'ll grow out of it.
Mom and Dad will be having too much fun together to really think about the kids all that much after a few months. Mom will see proof that Marcus doesn\'t need her. If she hasn\'t already. But my thoughts are cut short as I get a message back from Hailey.
[It\'s nice to join the exclusive club that is Kingslayer. I\'m on my way to pick up my reward too. What are Sally and you up to these days? The last I spoke to you, we talked about the terrible prank I pulled.]
Our last conversation was me telling her that I\'ve forgiven her and she should reach out. But she hasn\'t yet. It\'s still fresh on her mind and mine as well. But I\'ve moved passed it. I doubt Sally has, though.
Sally and I will be more than a few thousand miles away from the rest of the continent we\'ve had all our adventures in so far. The continent we\'re in is where all the North American Players first spawned.
So it\'d be called The North American Continent to outsiders. Where we\'re heading would be considered The African Continent. Where the people in Africa first spawned.
[Sally and I are heading over The Sea of Relsarmoder and toward the African Continent. I believe its Gaia name is The Continent of Alforza. It\'s far larger in size compared to the one we\'ve had all our adventures on till this point.]
My message is sent, and I wait for Hailey to get back to me. It takes a few minutes, but she does.
[I\'d ask if I could join you, but I sense this is something that\'s for Sally and you. I hope that you have fun. But do you have any suggestions for me on what I should do? I\'m kinda running out of ideas.]
A chuckle escapes my lips as I read her message. The whole point of adventure games is to explore and find things out. Not be told where to go and what to do outside of quests. I\'m not going to give her any ideas. This is up to her.
[The whole point of an adventure world is to go around and find things out for yourself. I\'ve influenced my family\'s decisions far too much. It\'s time that I step back. You have an entire world out there, Hailey. You can do whatever you want.]
Getting out of my family\'s decisions is the best thing I can do for them. And Hailey knows that better than anyone since she knows the truth about me. How I\'ve made a wish and gone back in time. All the things that have happened are my fault.
She knows this, and she\'ll understand the meaning of my words better than anyone.
We exchange a few more messages and say our goodbyes for now. I don\'t know the next time I\'ll see Hailey, but it\'ll probably be when she\'s supposed to guide me on my great theoretical destiny. I\'m still apprehensive about that...
"Mmm..."
A soft moan escapes from Sally\'s lips as she presses her body hard into mine. She\'s starting to wake up. And I\'ll be the first to say it feels great the way she\'s doing it. I can feel her boobs on my back. Even through clothes, they\'re great.
"Finally waking up, sleepy head?"
She\'s been asleep for over 14 hours. It\'ll probably take her a minute to wake up. She presses her body against mine even harder since her arms and legs are wrapped around me. And she lets out another yawn before replying to me.
"How long have we been flying?"
That goes to show she\'s been asleep the entire time. Which I\'m glad about. It proves that I\'m one hell of a flyer.
"Since you fell asleep back in Rendorel, in a couple of hours, we\'ll be hitting The Sea of Relsarmoder. But we\'ll stop at the closest coastal city and take a break. I\'d like some food and a break from flying. Going 14 hours straight takes a lot on the mental energy levels."
She kisses the side of my head and squeezes me in a hug. It\'s one of the things I enjoy a lot with Sally.
"Alright... How long is the trip over The Sea of Relsarmoder?"
Gaia is several times larger than Earth and is theorized to expand and create new lands due to magic endlessly. That\'s why the distances are so great. Taking 20 hours to get over an ocean at my top speed shows how big Gaia is even now.
"I\'m thinking it\'ll take around 20 hours, maybe a little less if I keep top speed. That\'s why I want a break before we go."
It\'s a long trip, but it\'s where Sally wants to go to start the next chapter in our story together. And I\'m excited about it more than she\'d ever know.
