IV-The world of Reverence

Huuuuuuu"

Kendrick woke up gasping for air whipping his head around feeling real scared. He pulled the vr helmet off and stared out into the brightly lit apartment of his. the sun had risen and with it the day a was already on it way. He checked the time and almost fell out his bed it was pass the time for him to clock into work "Shit!!, I'm going to loose my job"the thought began plaguing his mind, for a 21 yr old recent graduate money is tight and a better living is needed but kendrick has never been the type that excelled at anything and would just let life pass him by so a job for lack of a better word kept him alive..

"How long was I in that game for damn, the flow of time form the darkness to crossroads where completely a strange to me"he held his head and pondered.

He got up with a stretch and was about to dart for the shower when curiosity gripped him again, the same kind that kept him from bolting back out the door in front of tabbris. He turn staring at the sleek helmet and looted at the laptop laying on the desk next to him. "I need information and lots of it" he grab the device and headed for his small kitchen and made himself some tea.

He sat at the end of the table with the safe like box that the vrhelmet came in and his open laptop to the left of it he sat there with a cup of very sweet tea and pulled up the search tab.He typed in Reverence and a plethora of this popped up,it took him a half and hour to narrow down all the insufficient thing and there it was in the middle of all of it. The official site the design mirrored the box the helmet came in the was a Knight of sorts plated in a armor of white and silver light in the background and the words Reverence in bold black letters held the top and brought it all together..

The site gave basic information about the company behind the game and what the aim of players must be.Turns out that the game was in development before the vrboom of 2026 and had players doing series of testing on it to stabilize it's internal haul..The site also explained in a bland way that what happened to him last night in a sense a normal thing usually a player can change they're race by aligning with an AI's feelings and or gains they're respect to a degree to where they offer you the right to join they race and gain the history and benefits awarded to that race.. But no information on tabbris or the demon race.

Something that he didn't expect to see under the currency tab was a short description that let players know money made in the game could be transferred to real currency at a short exchange rate..this sparked an idea in him, if he could survive and make enough money in the game he could get a chance at a better life.

His mouth felt dry as the thoughts and ideas jumping in his mind where foreign to him. He sat there holding the cup and took a sip.

"If i don't commit when will i ever" Kendrick spoke out in a tone of frustration. He reached for his phone and stared at it, It was already time for him to clock into work so he scrolled through it and pulled up his job's number..

"Hello"A deep and old tone came threw the other end of the line..

"Morning Mr Wang"Kendrick spoke in a short and hush tone.

"Ohh if it isn't, Crybaby Ken" The smugness in Wang's voice irritated kendrick to his core"Why haven't you clocked in yet"The old man asked getting straight to his point..

Kendrick paused for a minute contemplating what was about to come out his mouth. "I quit" he said it clear and with no stuttering..

"Haaaa Haahah" The old man exploded with laughter unable to hold him self together. "Ohhhhhh big boy ken thinks he'll be able to do better than the great wang!!" he shouted it over and over "Big boy college graduate working at the warehouse is too much for him" he shouted again "Say old man"Kendrick feeling it time to snap back "You want to know what i study in college" he shot the question which was odd in this situation "Haa Go..Haahah Go ahead " the old man could even get his words out,"It was Analyse and which sub let in Tactics" kendrick spoke with a smirk on his face "Sooooooo what does that have to do with me" the old man blew up shouting, but kendrick cut him off and said "Simply really in 6 months your going to Loose that warehouse and all your other businesses". Wang grew quiet and and Kendrick hung up the phone..

"Beep, Beep"

Kendrick looked at the phone shaking his head and clicking his tongue, he was now a free man but it came with a cost, there's no steady flow of cash coming his way anymore and there might be hungry days coming soon,his funds where not at high at lease his rent was covered for a year..

Kendrick sighed for a moment and looked back a his dimming screen and swiped but mistakenly click the forums and flow of info came tumbling down the screen.. Information the main story line even though limited, it seemed that not a lot of players have discovered much relating to the story except for the Guildleader of this guild call Righteous Exiles that launched the first senescence to the story and that has boosted there popularity up the guide ladder turning them into one of the leading guilds on the Reverence Continent.

Forum's also exposed the fact that the Demon race isn't a popular race that is played because of it's hidden stipulations depending on the demon that initiated the race change for you.And major weaken against Holy magic and healing spells, thought demons have a high damage output in the long term a demon avatar was no good for raids. The Beta testers played the race of a demon for only a short time so never reaching the heights of the race deemed it useless..Forms added one more thing that kendrick drew interested in,a player could rule or even conquer land from the lands or other people or even the players..
