End Gate of Oz

So me and Sherlock went searching for a place to stay over the night. It didn't take us long to find ourselves in front of a portal. It was sort of grey and red-ish, smokey even.

I didn't think it was a good idea to enter this portal. But as some shadow creatures were following us, I decided to jump into it.

I'm not sure where I am.

I feel drawn to someone. Like I need to go someplace.

To a girl.

A girl named Tjia.

Domino City's Core

Alright, I'm getting real tired of this.
It took us forever to get out of that maze, by the end I was starting to get real paranoid.
And what awaits us at the end?

A pedestal, with a single trading card on it, The Mystical Elf.

"What am I supposed to do with this?"

"Well...in my experience it's used as a card game of some sorts"

"I know that Sherlock, I want to know why this is the prize for going through that maze of nightmares"

"I liked the maze, let's go again"

"No!"

"You're no fun, anyway maybe it will come handy later, hmm?"

"I guess I can take it" I said and put it into my wallet.

After that we walked around some more, nothing really to see & wouldn't you know it before we knew it we were once again in a maze.

I better get a better card than Mystical Elf or get a prize that isn't card game-based.

Mazes & Monsters

It was just a girl, she startled me, someone who is also a victim of the Empty City, I think.
She seems friendly, although I really can't tell anymore.

Her name is Sherlock Morel, wears one of those ol' caddie hats and has pink hair. Is pink hair normal in this world? Well it was in my old one, sort of...

"Hi, you're Axiom right?"

"Uhm yeah?"

"The First Axiom?"

"First?"

"Nevermind....I was sent here by Jack to act as your guide"

"Are you associated with him?"

"Not really...I owed him a favor, was sent here to be your guide. I'm not evil, although thats probably what an evil person would say, so think what you will" She said and smiled at me.

I haven't had the best of luck trusting women in the past (Ivory, Emily...arguably Jane) so I didn't want to let my guard down.But like I said, she seemed nice.

It wasn't long before we got lost, of course we did.
The whole city turned into a maze of sorts...

Have I mentioned how much I hate mazes?

The Land of Silence

Let me make this clear. I've never in my life dealt with real fears, from my newly gained memories I can safely say that the closest was when me & Ivory went to the Archive to get the journal & we were caught by the Blind Man, aside from that incident I've only dealt with pseudo-fears like the Magic Queen, Ivory Woman, Tale Weaver & Game Master a relative who's who? of goodness.

I mean think about that for a moment. The Game Master put several people through hell, making them kill strangers for the heck of it and there was not a damn thing we could do about it. I was killed by two snake people for god's sake...they didn't know me, they killed me anyway...
What I'm saying is, think about how powerful the Game Master was....He wasn't a fear.

That makes me terrified of what the fears themselves are able to do.
I'm scared, I know I shouldn't be, but the thought keeps clinging in my mind.
What the fears are even like in THIS universe is beyond me.

I'm in the Empty City, Jack sent me there.
The Empty City from what I've heard is supposed to be a sentient city that plays with its food.
I've started to use my Journal again, I'm sure it manages to get online like the good ol' days.
There is no one here, I think I saw a couple of Nightlanders though. They didn't say anything though.

Someone is h-...dskmfjdsksd;dsslomla....

Elven Lore & Enchanting Mermaids

Jack calls this world I'm in "The World At The Edge Of Reality", I don't know if that's true or not. I can't really tell when Jack is lying or not, but the latter doesn't come up often so one could easily assume.

He told me I was going to play in a game.
What kind of game you may ask?

Well...

I have to go into the Empty City & survive. You heard me right, he sent me to the Empty City, with nothing but the clothes on my back.

I've never dealt with REAL fears before.

Wish me luck!

Aslan Would Be Ashamed

Jack told me that this is not the same world, he said that freedom meant saying goodbye to the old one.
I never really liked the old one to be honest...but I'm not liking this one anymore so far.
I'm actually surprised that Jack would do this, what would he have to gain from ripping me from the world I was born into? I mean sure it was a fear-ridden hellhole, but so could this one be for all I know.

Jack is sending me on a mission today.
I wonder what it could be...but with my luck I'm probably going to die six times by the end of it, and still turn up alive.

Húrin Betrayal

I've begun to loath existence  I just wish that the Quiet would eat me and get me out of this cycle of dying and then waking up only to be tortured by whatever entity pleases. There seems to be no reason anymore, with the Game Master & Malachai I kind of got it, reading through their back story later on, but Jack is doing this out of nothing but cruelty.

I woke up in a bedroom, with Jack watching me from the doorstep.

"Morning James"

"What do you want Jack"

"Well aren't you feisty to someone who gave you your remaining memories back"

He was right, I do remember everything now. Everything from my 4th birthday to meeting Ivory and her later betrayal of me, selling me out to the Game Master & Blind Man after we got caught stealing my journal from the Archive. I even remember what the big deal with the journal is now, its pages are woven with manufactured newborn & nightlanders in order to create a journal that can see both the past & future, as well as receiving & giving signals.

"James, I bring good news" Jack said.

"What?"

"Well...Glitch told me you have completed the challenges"

"Really?" I asked.

It didn't surprise me that the Worm & Jack would be in some kind of cahoots.

"What now?"

"Well...freedom!" Jack said.

"Of course there is the small matter of payment"

"huh?"

"The pokemon batle, you lost"

"So?"

"You owe me"

It was all too good to be true, nothing good comes out of even speaking with Jack I should've known.

"All you have to do is be in my servitude for two months. Around March I will let you go, if you're still alive that is"

Jack gave me the day off.
At least there's that.
