Days pass and I experience the second phase of the curse, when the timer reached, 2628 hours. My scream created panic and chaos throughout the whole of HavenFall as I collapse at the training grounds. My whole body shakes violently and my lower back burns, a feeling I'm all too familiar with. Once the shaking stops, I back out, only to wake up in my house with Melody and Solar looking over.

"IAN! You are awake!" - Melody

"Sorry… To cause a panic back there…" - Ian

"Stay still. Your body is still recovering from what just happened." - Solar

"It's fine. I experienced this before. It-it wasn't that bad." - Ian

"Don't lie! You know it is the next day already? You were in bed throughout the afternoon and night. You were constantly sweating and shaking while you were asleep." - Melody

"I was?" - Ian

"She is right. I have never seen anything like this before. The curse mark on your shoulder has also escalated. The last time I saw it, it was just a small spider mark with a ring around it, but it was only after I took off your top and laid you on your stomach did I see the change.

It starts at the place where you got cursed by the Queen of Spiders. There, a trail of spiders the size of fingernails, can be seen wriggling towards the center of your back where a black tattoo of a spider resides. The front legs of the spider touches the place where your spider legs grows out of, as if the tattoo is connected to the legs itself. Likewise, the back two legs are connected to the new spider legs on your lower back. " - Solar

"So you are saying that on my back is a tattoo of a spider and where the legs are, is where the spider legs that have grown out of my body, starts?" - Ian

"Yes. Not only that, the hairs on your body arm and chest move as if they are alive. They sway to the rhythm of your breathing." - Solar

"What is happening to me…?" - Ian

"Don't worry, Ian. I'll be here to help!" - Melody

"Thanks Melody. How is the situation outside?" - Ian

"Everyone is worried about you and Gewari a goblin to bring back Kingston because of the incident." - Solar

"Kingston? Why?" - Ian

"The person that is closest to you is Kingston. We have heard the both of you talking about topics that we have no idea about, so, we assumed the both of you are close." - Solar

"I see. Is he here yet?" - Ian

"He is downstairs. Let me go get him. Melody, come with me." - Solar

Solar leaves with Melody down the stairs, and in a short while Kingston walks up.

"Yo! How are you feeling?" - Kingston

"Shitty. How do I look?" - Ian

"Shitty, but the next 2 spider legs are cool though." - Kingston

"Funny." - Ian

"Found anything related to the curse?" - Kingston

"Nothing. I've been here trying to help build the water wheel and more houses, since we are rescuing more NPCs from encampments. How about you? Anything in the grasslands?" - Ian

"Nothing much either. Rycka is working on a saddle and stirrups for the Zivotinja. We tried riding them, but it was too uncomfortable. Celine has succeeding on breeding some Xabarils as well as tamed more monsters. However, most of the monsters are killed because of my group. Gibing, David and Ken have been growing a lot during the fights and I have found a few ancient ruins which gave me some stats." - Kingston

"Nothing related to the curse, huh?" - Ian

"Nothing. We started to branch deeper into the grassland towards the direction Nina came from since she was fighting against spiders, however, we haven't found a trace of them. Once I do, I'll tell you. Until the next event, I'll be with them fighting. I can tell my skills have improved even if I'm not gaining stats. I'll also be bringing Kaede along. She wants to become stronger as well, and after hunting with Gobi she has become faster than even me." - Kingston

"Alright. I approve." - Ian

"Now, I think you come out and greet everyone, when I got here, everyone was worried about you. There are only a couple of hours left until the game ends for today, so talk to them for a bit." - Kingston

"Okay. I'll head out with you." - Ian

I step off the bed and carefully observe the new spider legs. Much like the ones that arch over my shoulder, these two arch around the side of my waist. I try to move them around bit by bit, but they too felt uncomfortable to work with. I decide to leave them be and learn more about them at a later date.

I walk down the stairs, following Kingston. Melody and Solar were sitting at the table with a cup of water in their hands. Once I step down, Melody rushes over and hugs me with a worried expression.

"Are you sure you should be up?" - Melody

"I'm fine. Feeling better already, plus, I need to make sure everyone knows I'm okay." - Ian

I walk outside with Melody, Solar and Kingston following behind me. I went around the whole village making sure I show my best side to calm their nerves. Lucina gave me a whole wooden crate filled with potions, telling me I should take them to get better. While, Owen and Robin told me I should rest up and not push myself too hard, letting everyone else do their jobs.

I acknowledge their help and proceed to rest for the next couple of days. Kingston went back to the Krepost and Stellar finishes the Ikanda training, letting Gewari go inside. Construction continues in HavenFall for the next 2 weeks, building more houses, weaponry, armor and the water wheel had finished being constructed. However, without any wheat, the water wheel was currently not doing anything. Instead, the construction of a granary had started. Then, one week before the 6-month anniversary, details about the event had finally been released on the game's home page.

[ Settlement 3rd Event

Hello everyone, are we excited about the 3rd event? We know we are. Now you must be wondering what is it going to be and why we have decided to tell you information about it before the event even starts. Well, let's start with why we are giving you information.

This event will be continent wide. Each continent will experience their own event relating to their own storyline. Each continent as different monsters and different leaders of their respective monsters, meaning each continent has their own story. The 3rd event will be part of the story of your continent and will affect other leaders as well as players alike.

Now, what is it? Well, it is going to be an event that spans for a total of 1 month or if a player or players figure out the secret behind the event. You are able to end the event early and the earlier it finishes, the better the rewards. Rewards will be determined by contribution.

What is contribution, you might ask? Well, we aren't going to tell you. That would give too much away. However, the top 10 of this event will gain a gift from us, so make sure you are in the top 10.

Any tips and tricks for the players? Be ready and be strong. Sometimes being alone isn't the play and being in a group might be detrimental. Find a balance and search for clues. Each continent as a solution to the event.

You will get a notification of the event starting on the day.

Be careful and as always HAVE FUN! ]

I read the post with Rebecca and the moment I finish, I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket.

"THERE IS BARELY ANY INFORMATION GIVEN TO US! Are THE GAME PRODUCERS JUST TEASING US????" - Evan

"PEOPLE ALREADY FIGURED THIS OUT ON THE FORUMS. IT'S LIKE THEY JUST COPY AND PASTE THAT ONTO THEIR HOME PAGE!!" - Evan

"Well, they can't give too much away, right?" - Sam

"More like, they aren't giving anything away other than the fact that the top 10 get rewards , and it will be based on contribution." - Ian

"Stupid Evan, why are you even upset?" - Sabrina

"It is interesting though… I think this is relating to the world main storyline that appeared almost after a month of playing." - Sam

"Oh, yea, Ian was the one that made that happen." - Evan

"WHAT?!" - Sam

"It was a long time ago, no need to bring it up." - Ian

"Damn, Ian is a menace. Not only did he find the prophecies first, he was also the one who unlocked the main storyline first as well. Next thing you know, he will be the first to complete this event. " - Kingston

"If each continent as their own storyline, then does the world main storyline branch into different continents?" - Rebecca

"I think we will find out once the event starts. Evan, how are you faring?" - Ian

"Uhh, my whole group looks like refugees moving through the country. I picked up a lot of different NPCs by attacking encampments along the way, and now we are a big group. Food is a bit hard to find, but we are doing our best. We ain't starving yet, and in the distance I see a large rock formation." - Evan

"Oh, I see a large rock formation as well. Maybe we are close?" - Rebecca

"OH! Maybe." - Evan

"What about you, Sam? Sabrina?" - Ian

"Still doing the same. Lot of fighting, mainly with Bones. Those guys are just fighting addicts, but the attacks from monsters have stopped giving me time to build my defenses." - Sam

"I'm doing fine as well, haven't had a chance to do too much." - Sabrina

"I'm doing okay where I am, too. Tomorrow I chose the social policy, I got lucky and got a lot of culture from an ancient ruin, and then 1 more week of prep. Everyone, make sure you are ready." - Ian

"Don't worry about me, just walking 24/7." - Evan

"I'm A-okay." - Rebecca

"I'm good." - Sam

"Will be fine, hopefully." - Sabrina

"I'll be back in HavenFall before the week ends." - Kingston
