Travail Online: Broken: (LitRPG Series Short Story)

No one is happy when King Frederic of Havenstock asks the court Medium, Alua, to accompany Sir Harold on a quest. The obnoxious Knight threatens to undermine their mission left and right, abusing his companions, disrespecting the ogres in their homeland, and negotiating with the swamp witch they were sent to apprehend. When they return to Havenstock, Alua seems like a woman changed for the worse. The King may be disappointed in his choice of champion, but is it too late to reign in the power-hungry Knight?

Broken is a villain story following a handful of NPC characters from Travail Online in the days before players first entered the virtual reality video game world. This story is best read between book one (Soulkeeper) and book two (Resurrection).
