(A/N: This book is on indefinite hiatus until further notice.) Akiri Shiranobu was a young boy with a passion for parkour. Everything changed after a fateful accident caused him to lose his legs. Now, he finds himself trapped in a death game along with 10,000 people and his childhood friend. (Disclaimer: None of the pictures/videos used in this book belongs to me unless stated otherwise. Sword Art Online and it's characters except my OC belongs to their respective owners.) (Status: On hold)

The floating castle of Aincrad is a wonderful place. It's filled with people and monsters who were designed for others to enjoy, to fulfil the desires of every gamer in the world. But when Kayaba Akihiko, the creator of Aincrad, traps ten thousand players inside of his world, a whole new adventure unfolds. Tales of Aincrad focuses on three new characters with very different stories. The first is a girl who is lost and without hope, the second is a man who discovers the dark undertone of his new world and the third, is a boy who has lost sight of the world he truly belongs in. These three tales will allow you to experience their struggles and through them you will see how such a wonderful place... can change you for the better and for the worse. The following piece of literature is a non-profit fan-based story. Sword Art Online is owned by A-1 Pictures, Aniplex USA and Reki Kawahara. Please support the official release.

The story follows my OC, Tyzn. A player of SAO who is trapped along with the 10,000 others and follows him as he fights to end the game. It then follows him after SAO, culminating in a romance with Lisbeth/ Rika Shinozaki (My favourite character outside of the Kirito/Asuna ship). Expect lots of Angst eventually leading to romance and some smut. Basically this evolved over time to become a love story between Liz and Tyzn and my more recent chapters are entirely based around this. This story was a little project I started to kill time during lunch at work, but quickly became something I sank my free time into. It is my first time writing a story of this length and any constructive feedback is appreciated. :D Initially the plan was to keep as separate from the main events of the story as I could but eventually they had to meld together. Because of this expect it to change a little of the Aincrad Arc, have nothing to do with the Fairy Dance Arc (Kirito went in solo after all) and by the time we get to Phantom Bullet it'll tearing the official lore to pieces. :D I will also add that most of my information on the official lore comes from the Anime and Wiki. I have only read small excerpts from the Light Novel series so it's possible I get some things wrong but I have done my best to stick to the lore and timescale where I can. As of writing this I have finished writing 31 chapters of this story (Although most of those need a couple more passes to make sure they are ok) and I have around 20 more planned all the way up to the start of Alicization. I don't own anything related to Sword Art Online, and expect this story to contain plot spoilers. I'm hoping to get a chapter uploaded every couple of days, so if you like the story please follow and leave any feedback in the comments :D
