3rd pov

In the city of New York in a general hospital laying in bed was a sickly young man at the age of 18 he has been in the hospital ever since he was little due to an illness making his bones fragile preventing him from moving around. His parents bought him a famous DMMO-RPG from Japan called Yggdrasil, and he had been playing the game since the beginning of his stay at the hospital. These had the best years of his life. However, that happiness didn't last. An announcement for the game's cancellation had been called, and today is his last day.

The young man sat in bed holding his head set while tears streamed from his face.

"Time for one last adventure."

He closed his eyes as he put his headset on, and as soon as he opened them again, he was no longer trapped in a hospital bed. Now he stood in the glorious kingdom he had created completely based on old England design The Divine Kingdom Camelot. The outer city is based on commoners district where he kept the npcs who manage a variety of shops he added for anything he needed, the inner city is where he made to be based on a nobles district that has npcs who manage his item archives, knowledge on skills and magic and some basic item locations for when he needs something for a quest and in the centeris his massive glorious castle perfectly glowing when the artificial sun hits it. Even his body was different now, he was now a young man with blonde hair, green eyes and wearing a crown with with silver armor and blue and gold short cape in this game he was known as Arthur Pendragon named after the famous king of legend and carrying on his hip was his world tier sword Excalibur and it's scabbard Avalon.

Arthur: * looking over himself * I'm going to miss this.

He went out and did minor quests easy to go through as he made his return to his kingdom he decided to take a look around what he had created instead of teleporting. Looking around the city, he sees many NPs of different races. Humans, elves, fairies, and many other fae creatures cheerfully moved about the kingdom buying wears from stores and markets.

Arthur: Wow, I certainly put a lot of work in this place for six years. I'm sorry to see this place go.

As his walk continued, he opened his hud and issued all his soldier npcs to greet him at the front and meet his knights of the round inside the throne room. As he reaches the castle, he sees his soldiers lined up in salute along with the spriggans, black dogs, and shapeshifters. As he entered inside the first floor he saw in front of him what he called The Sight of Selection he remembered how much backstory he put into the kingdom and its npcs he loved the old Arthurian legends and he did tweak it a bit to suit his roleplay. But in the middle of the room was a platform, and in the center was the stone that once held caliburn.

Arthur: * went to the center of the room now standing in front of the stone and held his hand above it* Come to me oh tower of light that anchors the layers of the World.

In saying the phrase a portal opened above the stone and coming out was a lance of weaving design with a seven foot shaft and this was no ordinary lance it is Camelot's Guild weapon The Rhongomyniad he carefully crafted and held it within his kingdom walls until the time he needed it.

Arthur: * grabbing the lance* It's been a long while since I held this, and it's only right to hold on to it at the end. * gripping it tightly *

He teleported to the throne room and there awaited him were his knights of the round and behind them are two thrones one was empty the other occupied by a beautiful beautiful woman who is none other than Guinevere he created her as a support but also as his dream woman that he wished he could have met. He sat upon his throne next to Guinevere The Rhongomyniad in his hands, sitting as a noble king should and commanded his knights to face him and bow. As he looked at his knights facing him lined up, he remembered each and every one of them and remembered the fun times he had.

Arthur: I wish this could last forever. * laid-back * If I'm lucky, I might die along with this world. * closing his eyes *

He starts to fall asleep on his throne as the timer runs out only then to continue on a new day.
