The Divided Lands: Openings (A LitRPG Adventure)

Christopher McKnight and Jeremy Rogers have been friends since they were little. As they both grew up, life hit them with tragedies and struggles. Chris has endured and tries to keep his head and heart up. Jeremy has given in and sunk into darkness. Now, when Jeremy decides to lash out at the world that has brought him so much pain and Chris tries to stop him, powerful forces take notice.

As Jeremy lashes out at a cafeteria full of his classmates and Christopher tries to stop him, divine and demonic forces appear and intercede. Chris, Jeremy, and some of their friends are all drawn into a new world, the Divided Lands.

The Divided Lands have been created by a team of souls from both Heaven and Hell. Tolkien was Heaven's chief contributor and with Gygax doing much of the heavy lifting. Rumors have it that Sid Meier was consulted through dreams and visions. Together these "designers" have created a worldgame that is used to settle disputes and resolve conflicts from the real world.

The worldgame is a combination of Dungeons and Dragons and Civilization. Six lands separated by rugged, impassable mountains make up the home bases of the six player characters from our world. In the center of these lands, a resource rich, heavily guarded arena land waits for the boldest and best.

Who will get there first?

Which side will eliminate all three of their opponents at the same time and win?

Will Jeremy Rogers go back to the real world to finish his tragic attack on their school, or can Christopher McKnight stop him?
