7 – Customer Review

More time passed inside the virtual world as Zeref's customer, Kyle, as Zeref has learned from stalk...ahem, observing his customer while he went through his first session and continued to work on the world, fixing any mistakes his customer came across and working on expanding the world past the borders of the game.

Zeref has long since recreated the entirety of the united states and was working on the Continuation feature for Fallout 2 after completing the feature for the first game.

He was almost done with the feature for the second game when his customer's session finally ended, forcing him to exit the game and leave a save to return from where he left off, if he returned that is.

Exiting the realm as well, Zeref, floating in the air, turned his head to his customer, who was clenching and staring at his hands and the computer before him.

"An experience unlike any you've ever experienced before, isn't it? Human."

"Was...Was it real?" The customer still in shock asked Zeref as he felt his greater strength and endurance from the game drain away from him.

"A dream for many, a second life for many others. Wonders that few on this little planet can ever hope to see, let alone recreate, and...a path for Humanity to progress forward and maybe even help raise your civilization to the galactic standard."

The customer went silent as he started processing everything, the game, Zeref, and the cafe as a whole.

The young customer seemed to be thinking about something very intently, and after a few moments, made up his mind.

"What can I use credits for?" the customer asked.

"You can use those credits to purchase merchandise that's not displayed or publically listed," Zeref informed the customer before turning the computer before him to face the customer.

"If you open up your computer, you can find a newly added 'Market' tab which shows you a list of items that are up for sale which you can purchase with your earned credits. At the end of every month, the list changes, and new or old items are readded to the market. As for purchasing the items, you could do that through your computer but must redeem them from me after purchase to obtain them," Zeref continued.

Hearing Zeref, the customer, Kyle, turned back to the computer and did in fact see a new tab.

Opening it, he saw an extensive list of items for sale.

[Refined F.E.V (10,000 Credits) - A syringe containing refined F.E.V., injecting this syringe into a living organism will cause the Organism to undergo a positive evolution which will not only strengthen and revitalize the Organism, increasing its lifespan, but will also give the organism a desirable trait of some kind, such as Psychic Abilities, a Healing Factor, retractable claws, wings, and more, depending on the organism. At most two of these syringes can be consumed by a single organism before complete and total cellular failure and destruction]

Zeref couldn't wait till he finishes Fallout 3 and gets to work on Fallout New Vegas and recreate two of his favorite characters in all of Fallout.

Joshua Graham and Ulysees.

One is a man of God walking the road of perdition, trying to make up for his past sins by helping and leading a tribe by the name of Dead Horses, and another tribe by the name of Sorrows led by another man of God called Daniel in Zion National Park.

While the other is a Courier, who walked the roads of the old and the new. One who searched for a home that would surpass the failure that made up the old world and the failures of the new one as well, and he did, only to lose his new home to the very person, the Courier, who made it possible and resides inside the DIvide, waiting for his fellow Courier to return to the land torn by underground nuclear devastation that was once a prospering independent settlement.

If Zeref remembered correctly, there were a few claims that Joshua Graham, otherwise known as the Burned Man, converted some people from his past world to his religion, which was interesting to think about.

[A/N: Yeah, recently watched a youtube video that claimed that some other people claimed to have been converted to Joshua's religion due to how charismatic and fearsome he was in the game]

With Zeref now going with the faster flow of time inside the game, he was able to do much more work in the span of an hour that would take him many days following the normal flow outside the mental realm.

However, about an hour in (outside the realm) and working on the beginnings of Fallout 3, he was interrupted by the sound of the glass door sliding open.

Leaving most of his mind inside to keep working, the rest took control of his body and looked upon the group of people that entered his cafe. It was discomforting at first to feel the differences in how time moved with his mind split apart, but he quickly adapted to it.

"Welcome to the 'New Worlds Cafe,' my name is Zeref, now what can I do today for you gentlemen?"

As usual, upon looking at Zeref, the group of what appeared to be thugs froze.

"Well?" Zeref asked.

"Is it true we can purchase something called 'Stimpaks' here?" One of the men hesitantly asked, stepping forward.

"Yes, among some other things that may also interest you."

"Like?" The man asked, curious.

'Seems they must have used the Stimpak that my first customer purchased and are wanting more,' Zeref thought to himself.

"Different variants of Stimpaks, various beverages that have quite a few health benefits, and more. Come, let me show you what I have in stock," Zeref told his potential new customers while waving at the items displayed in the glass case inside the counter in front of him.
