Chapter 1: Prologue I: Death is but the next Great Adventure
Liam looked down at the mangled corpse that was his body, and then to himself. 'Looks like I have become a ghost, or a soul if you will,' Liam pondered. 'Damn! They finally got me,' Liam cursed, as he glared at the retreating vehicle. Looking on as the vehicle disappeared around the street, Liam recalled his short but eventful life. Liam had lived a rather tough life. Born into a broken household, he learnt at a very young age that the world was not a safe and loving place. Liam was a survivalist, capable of putting his own survival as the utmost priority. After being given an expulsion from school due to multiple counts of injuring his fellow schoolmates, it was to no one's surprise that he joined up with the local gang in order to feed himself once his alcoholic father kicked him out of the house. With his ruthless attitude and nimble wits, he slowly carved a blood filled path by himself, rising in the ranks within the gang.
At the tender age of 21, Liam climbed up the chain of command and became the boss of hi gang in his neighborhood. In spite of what others might say about him, Liam was not a boorish man. He realized that knowledge was something essential to survival and craved it. Despite his poor education, Liam never stopped his thirst for knowledge. Once he came into more money, he would invest it in instructional books and other forms of media rather than waste it on drugs and other vices. His only outlet for relaxation was reading novels on Webnovel, which provided a needed distraction to his otherwise hectic lifestyle. However, on this clear, cloudless night, Liam breathed his last. A rival gang from across town had ambushed him while he was on his evening run, gunning him down before running over him with their vehicle to ensure his death.
Snapping out of his reverie, Liam looked back once more at the heavily tattooed corpse. He was not angry or upset that he died. Being in the 'protection' business was dangerous. Gang fights and gun violence were common in this line of work and it was almost a miracle he survived till the age of 30. He had no family or friends he cared deeply about.
A sense of peace and serenity washed over him as he realized there was nothing holding him back on the material world. It was at this moment he could see a brilliant star flashing in the night's sky, beckoning towards him. 'That must be where I must go,' he thought, an slowly floated upwards in its direction.
Looking down, he saw the vibrant A city slowly become smaller and smaller, before disappearing under the clouds. Looking around, he could see other figures in the distance, similar to himself, all meandering towards the brilliant star that seemed to be calling out to them. Finally, looking upwards, he saw the bright incandescent light of the star, and basked in its glory. 'It's beautiful,' he thought, as he imagined a chorus of gorgeous angels singing, almost as if announcing his presence. For the first time in his life, he truly felt that this world was a safe and loving place.
All of a sudden, a small tiny wormhole appeared somewhere ahead of Liam. It almost looked as if a tiny hole in reality was ripped apart, as it was ragged at the edges. At first, it was so small that Liam didn't even notice it on the account of being near blinded by the light coming off the star, but as he floated near the small hole, a massive suction force exuded from it. Caught off guard, Liam only had time to curse before being sucked into the small hole. Following that, the hole closed up seamlessly and in a few moments, looked as if nothing happened at all. Half an hour later, a beautiful winged humanoid floated towards the spot where Liam disappeared cursing along the way. "-Damn! Not again! What in gods name is going on?! This is the third disappearance this week! Who the hell, Oh err... I mean, heck is taking my souls! Don't let me catch you, or I'll roast your damn soul for 30000 years!!" The winged being cursed, holding up his tablet. "Looks like the person missing this time is, uh, one Liam Ledger, son of Larry Ledger... Damn, HR is gonna kill me for this..." He complained, flying back towards the brilliant star...
