The navigator of a mining spaceship is caught in a mutiny.

* This story was a contest entry for Avatars.inc but didn't make it to the finals. I revised slightly to detach it a bit from the original brief, which was this...

Established in 2038, Avatars Inc is the world's leading producer of robotic avatar systems that can transport a human's senses, actions, and presence to a remote location in real time. For the next few decades, they developed hundreds of avatar models and enabled millions of operator-hours.

In 2079, they launched a campaign to physically retrieve, preserve and archive the memory cards from their most valuable units. They searched the world, and deep into the solar system, to acquire the chips that contain avatar memories spanning the 21st century. However, one memory was missing. Avatars Inc asked the public to find and upload this missing memory - in the form of an original short story.

In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves. How will they react of finding themselves in a world where people can split mountains or bend the fabric of space, and where beings exist that even conventional weapons cannot defeat? How will they survive against deadly monsters, magical beasts, and superhumans that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.

I was having the worst day in a long string of worst days. Growing up on the streets in the middle of monster apocalypse put a lot of things in perspective - however, meeting one of these creatures personally was the crown jewel of my bad luck. He stalks, he claims, he does not understand... Trigger warnings: abandonment, abuse, assault, gore, death, injuries, murder, poverty, rape, self-harm. __ A more realistic take on a relationship featuring interest from an inhuman element. It's not rosy, it won't be smooth, there's no instantaneous affection. As such the story is barely even a romance - there's struggle, ambiguity and things going from bad to worse on an express train. All that said, there will be semblance of a happy ending.
