Prologue — A Day Like No Other
The first part of my new serialized novel, wherein the 3 protagonists find themselves trapped in an VRMMORPG.

Most people were all about the grind, the dungeons, and the raids in this game. Vallens personally preferred the fetch quests, gathering, and crafting. Sometimes ve even roleplayed, a popular pastime among many.
Ve were, by no means, a social player. A solo player through and through, Vallens completed most of the main story and side quests alone, because ve only had vemself to rely on. In the past, back when ve had friends and bothered with guilds, there was the ever persistent fear of straggling behind the group, or going too far ahead of them. Mostly, ve just liked to immerse vemself in the game and act out fun little scenarios with NPCs. Or pretend to be a legit fisherman, a skilled chef, or a roving miner always on the lookout for an unexplored gold vein.
That kind of stuff.
But every now and then, ve had someone who completely ruined ver immersion. Like a player named “Xgongiveit Toya,” hopping around and spamming emojis at his friends.
