<p>This is Connor. If you're reading this, that means you're still alive.</p> <p>If you're a new arrival—my condolences. You thought you were gonna die, only to find yourself in this hellhole of a world called Nexus.</p> <p>You'll get some random superpower soon. Hope your RNG is blessed. If you find yourself a good samaritan player, learn all that you can from them and stay in their good graces. Ask all the questions you can, because having information is the difference between eating the next ration and getting a bullet to the head.</p> <p>Oh, if the good samaritan betrays you...don't take it too personally.</p> <p>If you don't find a good samaritan, don't worry. You'll get a tutorial package from the System soon enough. I don't know much about it, didn't go that route.</p> <p>Protips: Keep your World ID a secret. Don't get stuck in a Riftgate when the timer runs out. Upgrade your gear. Soloing is not for everybody. Watch your six. Don't piss off a girl called 'Tempest'.</p> <p>If you're reading this and you're a veteran player....put it back where you got it from, but I also have a message for you.</p> <p>If a cache of grocery goods spawns in a Server that you and I are in, don't even think about trying—stick to your ration bars, punk.</p> <p>[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]</p> <p>* This is an Isekai LitRPG story set in a post-apocalyptic world. I'm not sure if I should also classify this as a System Apocalypse but it does share elements of that subgenre.</p> <p>* Updates will be inconsistent during the Writathon event's duration. Afterward, I'll be updating this story twice a week on Mondays and Fridays.</p> <p>* I'll eventually be making a WorldAnvil page detailing all the lore and RPG mechanic details since it is the system that I'm using for all of my stories.</p>
