A/N:
Ok, welcome to my new story, A Purple Void. Eventually I will rewrite all of SAO's in a huge new story to make it more accustomed to my main fic "A Reimagined Life" and adding OC's (such as Nobu, in my other fic "A Warrior Dressed in Blood") to have a band of merry adventurers (that was cringy sorry). This is kind of like Aaron the Wise's story "The Azure Swordsman" (which I recommend) but less of a full rewrite of SAO's event's and adding the OC's as much as just doing a full, different story.
WARNING: Spoilers for Progressive and main arcs
This story is about Kizmel and a sort of retelling of how she met Kirito in-game (she's an AI). If you guys don't care about spoilers, I'll do a quick recap of who Kizmel is and how Asuna and Kirito met her: Basically there is this huge side quest called Elf War. Which as the name implies, is a war between two races of Elves, dark elves and forest elves. The way to start the quest is to choose sides in this forest, which you choose a side (dark or forest) and fight the other side. In the book, Kirito did this quest before in the beta and in there, no matter how hard you tried, both elves would die when you chose either side. When Kirito and Asuna tried and chose the Dark Elf side they both fought as hard as they could and ended up saving the Dark Elf and killing the forest elf, getting Kizmel as basically a follower for the quest. Therefore, Kizmel and them go on adventures and they discover she is an AI with feelings and such (basically a Yui case but with a simpler AI).
Sorry for the long explanation;-;, I just wanted to explain this. I haven't read Vol 4 of Progessive either so I don't really know what happens so sorry ;( I'm getting it soon.
Anyway, this story is going to be a basic rewrite of the two POV's (Kirito/Asuna and Kizmel) and changing the story of the progressive arcs.
And now I've decided this is going to be a prologue chapter because this too long, so see you guys in the 1st chapter of Purple void ;)
