I Woke Up In A Completely Different World!

(2 days later)

It's finally been 2 weeks since I've ended up on this side of the world and things couldn't be getting any slower. Me getting sick has had a profound impact on my progress of finding a way back home, but I've met so many people.

There's Madelyn, 24 years old, another human like me, and she's the most mysterious of everyone. We asked her about how she came to this world but always avoids the question. I concluded that something horrible must've happened. Apparently, she's from Riverside, another city from my homeworld.

Young Mi, 885 years old, and the oldest of the group. A Wight that hasn't lost herself despite being through so much. Knowing the extinct element of Ice and a stoic, I'd say she'll surprise anyone she meets. I'm not sure where she's from or how she became a Wight, but Madelyn and I believe it's best to keep it that way for now.

Dai-tai, 22 years old, a Demon that's rather mischievous, yet her heart is set in the right place. She'll pass herself off as a simple girl from the country even though she's arguably the smartest, second to Young Mi. She also tried passing her off as a Succubus when I met her, and I actually believed her at first. Turned out it was a poor attempt at a joke.

I've also heard that her home was taken and her parents killed, but I've yet to confirm it myself. She's from Zheng De Meinu, a hidden gem far in the east by the beaches. There's even talk of us going down there.

Niroja, 18 years old, a Goblin that's creative and curious. She handcrafted my necklace with a bit of Dai-tai's help. She worries but almost always has a smile on her face. From what I know, she's always been with Dai-tai since they were only children and was with her when they found Young Mi.

Lilith, 19 years old, a Demon of the Royal Family. Not the most popular because of it. I believe that if it weren't for Madelyn and Young Mi, she'd be tied up somewhere or even dead. She's essential in Madelyn's "big plan" to dethrone the Queen.

Zia, 15 years old, the youngest and an orphan. A very sweet Demon girl that's well known by everyone. As Nikita's granddaughter, she knows a lot about what's going on and is good for information. She doesn't get too involved with what we do, mainly because nobody wants her to get hurt. She's also risk-averse, avoiding danger as much as possible like she did when she stayed behind when we stole the medicine from the military.

Nikita, the leader of the village, though unofficially. If anyone will know how to get home, it'll either be him or Young Mi. He holds a grudge against the current government, especially the Queen, as he sees her as the one in charge. I asked Dai-tai and she said his hatred comes from having to witness the military "accidentally" killing his only child and making Zia an orphan.

…

That should be everyone right now.

Madelyn: "Steven, you're actually writing in that journal?"

She walks down the road with Lilith, intrigued by what I was writing. She tried to peek, but I was reluctant to let her see.

Steven: "I may as well have something to do while I wait in-between tasks. Where'd you 2 run off to?"

Lilith: "Miss Young Mi asked for our help."

It took some convincing from Madelyn, and I'm not as paranoid like before, but I suppose it's possible to try and forgive Lilith.

Madelyn: "Everyone else is there, are you coming?"

Steven: "You came for me?"

Madelyn: "Yes, why else? You've been sick the past week and everyone wondered where you were."

Steven: "Alright, lead the way!"

I should enjoy myself while I'm here. Madelyn supposedly now has a different plan for the Royal Family. She hasn't told me yet, but apparently, it'll bring a "peaceful end to the main quest."

I know she has the right idea and would lead me back home quickly.
