    Summary

    Some claim that the end of the Age of Fire was first foretold when the sun flickered one bright afternoon. 'Twas nothing but an old wives' tale, yet in this current scourge of the Undead Curse it was a tale all the more tempting to tell, particularly amongst those poor souls inflicted with it. The sun itself had let slip its doubt on the earth and its people below, and soon enough the world will cease to be. Even still, hope flickers within the twilight of this Age. If the legends are true, then among the accursed a Chosen Undead shall arise and save the world from this wicked darkness.

    Few believe such a legend to be true. Fewest of all believe this hero to be a strange, poisonous, loveless thief known only as Leiurus the Scorpion.

    Sometimes a tragedy, sometimes a comedy, and most often containing far more proactive NPCs and wild speculation on their backgrounds, this is a creative novelization of my very first playthrough of Dark Souls.

    Summary

    The Age of Fire is coming to an end, and with it, the world. Within the once divine kingdom of Lordran, a horrible curse of undeath spreads like wildfire, leaving lost souls and crumbling civilizations in its wake. Humanity is in danger, and with little hope there are not many options remaining. Despite the darkness, Atiri, a young Eastern girl infected by the curse, hopes to fulfill a prophecy, said to uplift the curse once and for all. She also seeks to discover who she was and her purpose. Atiri is accompanied by two others afflicted by this curse: A nameless warrior who has failed the journey once before, now crestfallen and broken, as well as a pious cleric who had spent his Undead fate seeking vengeance and soaking his hands in innocent blood.

    As well as Atiri, the story follows the perspective of a merchant named Domhnall, a knight of noble blood named Oscar, and a frail clergy girl named Rhea. “Alter Vita - A Second Chance” is a redemption story and a complete re-telling of the events of "Dark Souls" but with a novel spin.

    Will these Undead men and women use their second chance wisely? Only time will tell...

    Summary

    You've been arrested and shipped off to where all others who share the curse of undying await the end of the world, though without purpose, near all who are sentenced to the prison fall into madness before losing themselves. Luckily for you, you've held out just long enough, and are sane enough to accept your freedom.

    Luckily for another, you're naive enough to let yourself be given a purpose.

     

    (( This fic obviously takes place in the universe of Dark Souls I, but it doesn't rely so heavily on the lore that you'd miss out if you're not familiar with the game. Feel free to ignore name drops from the game. It's just a setting and some plot points that'll be explained anyway. ))
