    Summary

    If you could choose a world to be isekaied into, you probably wouldn't choose the videogame Age of Tales.

    It's a painfully generic medieval RPG with a very generic "farm boy becomes a hero" storyline. Or farmgirl, if you go that route. There's some moral choices, but overall the story is very linear from start to finish, and no matter how evil you try to play it, the game inevitably ends with the chosen farmboy (or girl) saving the world. Age of Tales has a very generic cast of characters with very generic backstories, even more generic villains with very basic evil plots, and side quests right out of early free to play mmorpgs. Overall the game is just very… mid.

    Upon release the game was a massive flop.

    And Katie has happily sunk nearly six hundred hours into it.

    I laughed, I cried, I [redacted] through the rollercoaster of a ride that was socksock(airplanned)'s All the Trashy Novels. And then I came to the conclusion that it deserves a trashy novel cover of its own. Ahh, the classics.

    Summary

    “What are you doing here?” He asked evenly.

    It was obvious what she was doing there, she thought miserably, fixing the pack slung over her back. “Taking a walk,” she huffed. He could easily call out to the guards, alerting them of her presence, foiling her escape plans. But he had explaining to do, too. “What are you doing here?” She asked.

    He gave her a once over, spotting her bag. Caught. “Sneaking out,” he said.
