What are comrades who run on code? What makes an artificial creation designed to fight alive? Taking place before the events of 'R. A. T. H', this is a short story that focuses on the character Shana Striker with a brief glimpse into her past as a Captain within Alos's army. It is best read after having read up to at least the end of chapter 23 of the main story, though chapter 30 is more preferable. Yet, this short may also stand alone on its own merits if you wish it to. Discord Server: https://discord.gg/vwKhVUR Want more interesting stories? Check out my profile.

This story adds details the Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, Volume 1, in which Weed goes to the Lair of Litvartwith the regiment led by Midvale. Yes, I understand it's a really obscure and forgettable moment. It's really short, so please read it before judging it. It's probably best read in conjunction with chapters 6 and 7 of the first volume, since there's a lot of overlap. If you've read this far, then thank you for giving this obscure little thing a chance. TL;DR It's a short story to add details to LMS Vol.1.

He is determined to be responsible for her by marrying her despite her protests. He can give her anything, but all the strange woman wants from him are silkworms and a place to grow them.

Because Fillin doesn't intend to spend an eternity in this digital playground even if though there's no difference from the real world.But the only way he can return to reality is to become God in the game. And so our hero sets foot on the Path of the Gods, ignoring the facts that he is followed by a walking nightmare named FreakHead, that the skies mock his every step and that anyone who looks upon him sees the title "Bringer of Chaos."
