The rule had always been this way: the strong over the weak, the rich over the poor. Mark knew this, he'd even experienced it.

After his boss fired him for discovering the affair with his girlfriend (who also worked at their small gaming company), Mark vowed never to be humiliated like that again. He wanted to rise above everyone, to become the world's top player, the one who made the rules and decided everyone's fate.  But that was wishful thinking.  He was just a heavyset, nerdy guy with some programming skills and a large appetite.  What else did he have going for him?

Hit hard by this reality, jobless and dumped, Mark withdrew into gaming, which also became his source of income.  One day, after leaving a bad review for a game he played and streamed, he received a strange reply from the game's creator.  Suddenly, Mark found himself transported to Aetherium, the world of that same game, as Magnus Lancaster, the young lord of a crumbling territory.

Now, with this new beginning, he vowed never to be weak again, never to leave his fate in someone else's hands.

Unbeknownst to him, Magnus left Noah's office on the first floor, descending to the ground level, oblivious to the traumatized wolf he had left behind. The group of young recruits still milled around the mission board, their attention absorbed by the missions on the mission board. Just as before, Magnus slipped past them unnoticed.

Exiting the building, he headed directly for the eastern wall. With no immediate threats to the territory, the number of guards stationed on the wall was minimal. This didn't mean security was lax, just not at its highest level of alert.

"Good morning, Lord Magnus," the guards greeted as Magnus approached.

"Good morning, fellas. How's it going?" Magnus replied with a smile.

"Everything's quiet here, Lord Magnus. Nothing to worry about," responded one of the guards, seemingly the leader of the small group of guards. "Heading out, Lord Magnus?" he inquired.
