MMORPG: Fighting with avatars in another world

In a meadow, a dark-haired young man awoke from a deep sleep, feeling the gentle breeze caress his face. His simple clothes, woven with earthy colored threads, swayed gently to the rhythm of the wind.

A few meters away, the sound of laughter broke the silence. She turned her head and saw two figures moving with boundless energy. They were jumping and running carelessly, crushing small flowers that decorated the meadow with vivid hues.

When they noticed him, they immediately approached, crossing the distance with quick steps. One of them, a young man with blond hair, could barely contain his smile as he hurried toward him.

-He's awake! - he said, letting out a laugh.

The other, a girl with the same shade of hair, stopped beside him, her hands folded in front of her chest and an excited smile on her face.

-Another one! - he exclaimed, giving little hops that made the wind pick up the fallen petals around him.

The newly awakened boy frowned and looked at them both. The sun illuminated their animated faces, but he found nothing familiar about them or the place. The light breeze ruffled the strands of his hair as he tried to find words.

-Who are you? - With a hint of suspicion, she asked toward the pair of blondes. 

Excited, the two blondes didn't listen to him, hopping around like excited rabbits forgetting the person in front of them.

With mild irritation, he shouted.

-Who are you people?!

With the young man's shout, they stopped jumping and spoke at the same time.

- I am Aria!

- I am Thorin!

-And we... we are the twin brothers! 

Their screams were so loud, he thought their ears were bleeding.

Even with their outrageous presentation, he kept his composure.

-All right, twin brothers, where am I? - he asked, the young man still suspicious.

Hearing the young man's question, they became even more excited. Not waiting any longer, wanting to answer his question, the two young men scrambled to answer him, grabbed each other by the hair and pushed themselves into the greenish grass, tumbling downhill.

Rolling down the hill, they were still fighting, he didn't understand why they were behaving like little children.

Moments later, he saw that their fight was over, the dark-haired young man watched as the blond young man, Thorin, came running towards him.

- I won!... Wait! I'm coming! - In less than 5 seconds, he was in front of him, it was amazing, as he rolled down the hill together with his sister, calculating, he thinks it was 200 meters down, maybe more.

-Wait, how did I hear him if he was far away? - I didn't understand what was happening.

- I'm here! That was a terrible fight, I almost lost! - with a big smile, Thorin laughs out loud.

-mmm... so tell me, where am I? - noticing the question, Thorin answers.

- You're in Ki-ana!

- Where is that?

- I don't know! the old man called this land Ki-Ana!

The young man, already stressed, did not know what to say, Thorin exuded a strong energy, shouted all the questions he asked, he did not feel like continuing with the interview, he mentally gritted his teeth and continued.

- Who is that "old man"? 

- Uncle Anu! He said to wait for you to wake up and guide you to him! - Remembering what he had to do, Thorin grabbed the young man's hand.

Thorin tried to walk, but to no avail, he turned back and saw how the young man was standing still without moving an inch. 

-We have to go to Uncle Anu! Before my sister comes and hits me! - Thorin was impatient with urgency.

The young man saw this and put up no more resistance, he followed Thorin until they reached a stream. 

He saw from a distance, several guys talking.

-Uncle! I brought the sleeping brother! - Thorin, excited, ran to his uncle. 

A tall guy, too tall for one person, Thorin's uncle looked like a man in his 30's, he wasn't quite sure.

The uncle seeing that Thorin's sister was not there, spoke.

-Thorin, where is your sister? Run and fetch her and come along, both of you. - Uncle, with a smile on his face, told Thorin to go to his sister.

-Yes, uncle! I'll be right back!

Thorin ran, and in less than two seconds, he could no longer be seen. Thorin's uncle noticed the dark-haired young man and walked towards him.

-So you are the new member, I am the god Anu, welcome.

With a dumbfounded look, the young man looked at the god Anu.

-You don't need to speak, with your look I know you have questions, I can only tell you that all of us here are gods, and you are one of us. - Anu continued speaking, giving him all the answers he had.

-Don't worry about anything, you are one of us, I don't know much either, there are only a few of us here, you are the seventh. - Speaking calmly, the god Anu answered him.

-Now give me your hand, I will see what you are and I will give you a name. 

The young man, with doubt, did not know whether to shake his hand, all this was new and difficult for him to digest, but as he had nothing else to do, he swallowed his doubts and gave him his hand. 

Anu touched his palm delicately, and analyzed the young man. Having no idea what the god Anu was doing, the young man only confided.

-I see...that's it, now I will give you a name, from now on you will be called Adir - with his name given. Anu released his hand.

-You are the dragon god, mmm a fantastic creature, amazing, young Adir, well, I'm leaving.

Calmly, Anu walked in a direction that Adir did not observe. Adir was dumbfounded. 

Adir froze for a few seconds, not knowing what to say. He was trying to digest the information given by Thorin, but Anu dropped a much bigger bombshell, he felt like he was about to explode.

His stupor didn't last long, a young man with red hair tapped him on the shoulder.

- You are the new one, aren't you? I'm Kairos, god of war, nice to meet you, what's your name?

Adir looked up, Kairos was a rather tall man, if he wasn't wrong, he was much taller than the average height, he thought.

ahhhh... yes, I am Adir, dragon god, nice to meet you, Kairos.

-It's nice to meet you, Adir - Kairos, with a nice smile, greeted Adir.

-I'll introduce you to the others, they are a bit reserved, don't bother with them if they don't answer you, understood? - Heading towards the two of them, he spoke. - Hey, come here for a second, the new brother has woken up, say hello.

The two boys, who were talking, noticed that their brother Kairos was talking to them, they looked at Adir with a look of disinterest, they didn't want to engage in a conversation, they gritted their teeth and with displeasure, they began to talk.

-Kyaros

-Ra'am

The two just said their names and fell silent, they didn't want to follow where Adir was, they turned away from him and went somewhere else.

Kairos put his hand to his forehead and sighed, he couldn't do anything, the two younger brothers didn't talk much, and he didn't want to break his fragile relationship with them. 

-Forgive me, Adir, they are both a bit reserved, they don't like to talk to anyone, not even to uncle Anu - his voice denoted pity and guilt, for wanting to introduce Adir to Kyaros and Ra'am.

-Don't worry, it's okay - Adir, wasn't upset about the two, he thought that, as the twins were childish, maybe these two were too. 

-Thank you for understanding, there is one more missing, but he is older than me and uncle Anu. He doesn't talk to us much, so, I don't think you'll see them around here often. Well, you already know the twins, so I won't introduce them.

Adir didn't say anything, he was trying to take in all the information given by the others before acting.

-Where are we? Anu didn't tell me much. - Adir asked, wanting to know a little more.

-We don't know either, I just know that we are gods, well that's what the older brother said. And that this place is like the promised land, where we can do whatever we want.

Adir heard their words, they had more questions, but he just nodded, they didn't have much information either, he didn't want to ask more questions if they couldn't answer them.

A few hours passed, Adir and Kairos talked about many things, such as the landscape, the twins and the god Anu. Although Adir couldn't keep up with him, he didn't know much about the others. He just woke up a few minutes ago.

Adir no longer had any questions to ask her. After they finished their conversation, they said their goodbyes.

Walking without a fixed place, Adir thought why he was here, he was just a young man fresh out of college looking for a job, who, unfortunately, he assumed died in the elevator and came to this land, and now he is a god.

He can't believe it, he also can't believe that now he feels indifference about everything that happened, as if his human emotions were turned off, he felt that this was something that had to happen. 

Without a fixed direction, Adir walked until he digested all the information, he no longer cared about his old life, he was just a small human looking for a way to survive in the high society.

-Let's start from scratch - Adir found the determination to move forward.
