"Saras Gayen! Are you reading those dusty old books again?" Nina Gayen's shout preceded her entrance as she banged open the door to her son's room. As she expected, she found Saras sitting on his bean bag, holding a paperback copy of World History: The Ancient Civilizations. She snatched the book from his hands and tossed it into the pile of other books covering a range of topics from politics to economics related to Earth. "Look at Ellie's daughter, Stivi. She has already reached Level 3 in the Dreamverse VR within two hours of its launch. Why are you still lounging at home?" "I am not lounging! I am studying History…" Saras protested, looking at the book pile before turning his gaze towards his mother. She stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him as if he had committed a grave sin by not entering the game as soon as it was launched. "You are turning 25 this year. If you don't play the Dreamverse VR now and join a good guild, how will you find a wife?" Thus started his journey as he once again navigated the VR scene through the mysterious game Dreamverse VR that was said to hold the keys to Human Evolution.
In the Southern District of the Rajni City, there was a colossal tree, growing upwards like a verdant spire. The vast canopy of this tree was spread over several plots of lands.
This huge tree was comparable to the one hosting the City Guard Office, and only slightly smaller than the Longevity Tree that hosted the City Hall.
This huge tree belonged to the Red Fox trading Firm alone!
However, the Red Fox Trading Firm was not the only organization residing in this tree; the Scarlet Heart Guild had also operated from a large quarter on the third floor of this tree.
It was all thanks to Marna, who had struck a friendship with Merchant Gama after saving his caravan from the Bandits in the Marauder's Pass. This friendship had benefited the Scarlet Heart Guild greatly.
