(Music to listen to as you read)

"And another day for me...yaaaay...well...in my head..."

:Are we really going to start this day with you whining?: 'Asks ANI'

"It's either that or I be totally silent, which would you prefer?" 'I ask'

:For some reason, I'm more compelled to pick the first option. I find it odd to ask you to be...quiet:

"Awwww, you like talking to me! That's so sweet..." 'I teasingly say'

:I might just rechoose my option...: 'ANI warily said'

"HA! Sureeeee you will..." 'I said with a bark of laughter'

'A few quiet moments passed as we sat in silence, barely a noise trickling into my mindscape'

"ANI?"

:Yes, Imperial?: 'Asked ANI'

"I have a question about uh...quests" 'I slowly stated'

:Quests?: 'Asked ANI with a hint of confusion in her tone'

"Quests." 'I said with a nod of my head'

:Are you...going to elaborate?: 'Asked ANI'

"Oh, uh, right! So...I noticed...I haven't really gotten any quests? I mean...didn't...uh...wasn't like...my life supposed to be a game or something? Shouldn't I receive quests or something?" 'I asked with a curious tone'

:Ah, I was wondering when you we're going to ask about that. In truth, you're not going to get many quests at such a young age. You truthfully can't do much due to your...lack of being able to even move on your own or even DO anything on your own. You could receive some simple quests along the line, and when I say simple I mean VERY simple. I'm not entirely too sure though. Most people or...other master's I've been given to have had to deal quests over time: 'Stated ANI'

"Like, not even any starter quests?" 'I despondently ask'

:I suspect that one should come sooner or later, my expectations aren't even all that high, but I don't even know wha-: 'Before ANI could even finish what she could say, a notification popped up within my vision'

"Oh...uh...it's definitely been updated a bit. A few changes here and there, not all that fancy really." 'I simply say'

:Hm, indeed. To be honest...I didn't expect you to get a quest right AFTER...or well...before I finished speaking: 'ANI says with a hint of annoyance in her voice'

"Wait...I thought you were the one who was supposed to give me quests?" 'I ask with a confused tone'

:Wellll...no, no not really. See, for me...I'm just a guide. I'm mainly just supposed to help you here and there. Most quests you receive are either through interaction with another or subconsciously wishing to do something. It's like...wishing for the sky to rain gold and it just...happens: 'Says ANI'

"Huh, sooo...if I were to think about wanting a quest...I'd get it? It'd be that easy?" 'I ask her'

:More or less, yeah: 'Says ANI with a (Mind shrug...I don't know what to call it yet!)

"Ah, well...that's useful. So...can I stack quests? I really don't wanna give up a quest just to have to start another one." 'I say with a semi-worried tone'

:You can indeed stack quests, you don't have to worry about losing any quests if you accept another one. However...you can lost quests through failing them: 'Says ANI'

"Fail them?" 'I ask'

:Yes, fail them. The only real ways to fail quests is either through death, failing a set time limit, or failing the set objective: 'ANI says'

"That's all the way's to fail? I feel like that's not all of them." 'I say with a raised eyebrow'

:You are indeed correct on your assumption. There is a plethora of ways to fail quests or even succeed in doing said quests. Technically speaking...there's almost an infinite number of possibilities when it comes to succeeding or failing. I'd advise caution when doing a quest or it might severely cost you...depending on what type of quest that is of course: 'Said ANI'

"Hmmm...VERY interesting. Anyways...uhm, I got another question." 'I say to ANI'

:Yes?: 'Asked ANI'

"What's up with the hud? Why is constantly changing? I mean...I can understand a few things! It's just...some things just come and go?" 'I ask her'

:There's not much of an explanation to it. Truthfully there's no ACTUAL hud, it's just what you're perceiving. It constantly changes as it goes, either to accommodate all the new skills, perks, items or other things you obtain through your new life: 'Said ANI'

"So...it's like a console receiving daily software updates?" 'I ask with a tilt of my head

:Correct! It's exactly like that! Of course...with the exception that the creators can't make up their minds on how they want the main screen to look: 'ANI said with a huff of irritation'

"Yeah...some developers just don't know how to make up their minds." 'I say with a tinge of disappointment to my words'

:Agreeable, but isn't that how every mind words? From the smallest of bugs to the greatest of minds?: "Asked ANI with a question in wording'

"You said mind twice." 'I say with a raised eyebrow'

:Sometimes you have to say some words twice just to get a point across: 'Said ANI'

"That's true." 'I say with a nod of my head'

:I mean, cmon! Some developers just can't get their heads out of their asses!? Can't they see that most people don't want their data storages being flooded with too many demanding updates!?! Is it to much to ask for just a small update instead of one that fries your systems.....SYSTEMS!: 'ANI says with a irritated huff'

"Uh, ANI?" 'I try to cut in but she just keeps going'

:Like seriously! I understand some changes towards like the main screen looks or some updates towards the consoles settings but it doesn't mean they have to do it all in one go! Why can't they do just small changes here and there?!: 'ANI was seemingly just starting to rant at this point'

"ANI..." 'I try to call her name a bit more forcefully but to no avail'

:Oh! And don't even get me started on the updates for games! Like, why such big updates for the games to even begin with!? It's so rare to actually even get a game that doesn't require an entire day!: 'At this point ANI was just shouting'

"ANI!" 'I attempt to shout her name but it doesn't even seem to have an effect'

:BAH! Corporations and their greed for money! Most games come out super underdeveloped and not even as promising as the advertisements claim them to be! Seriously, it's just-: 'ANI most certainly wasn't going to stop anytime soon...'

"Ugh...this sucks..."

:OH AND THE DEMOCRATICS CAN KISS MY ASS! AND SO CAN THE REPUBLICANS!: 'ANI's pretty much raving at this point'

"ANI! SHUT UP! HOLY FUCKING SHIT!" 'I yell at the top of my longues to just stop her'

:AND....AND....and....ugh....hehe....oops?: 'ANI seems to calm down with the realization that she's been...yelling in your head for the past few hours'

"ANI...my head hurts now...and it feel's weird...but still...it really hurts. I am like, trying not to be mad right now...but...it feel's as if you've caused a riot in my head...and it's really fucking painful..." 'I say through gritted teeth'

:Hehehe...hehe...heh...: 'ANI nervously chuckles'

"ANI...you're going to make up for this...right? 'I say with a glare'

:O-oh! Uh, of course! Yes! I shall...strive to make up for my mistake...heh?:

'A few silent moments pass' "You better..." 'I hiss'

Author's Note

NEW CHAPTER, AWOOOGA

a little information on the HUD!

Ever 5 levels its a 250 XP boost to get to the next level! lvl 1,2,3,4,5 - 250xp | 5,6,7,8,9,10 - 500xp | The xp requirement then doubles when reaching the double digits for levels, then trips when in the triple digits, and ect. 10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17, - 1000xp | Pretty simple, its not like most games where xp counts are random from bosses or enemies. I decided that xp drops should be equal numbers just to make things easier.

I wont go over the stats because most of the data needed to understand the stats is in the older chapters!
