"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands.
Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose.
Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain.
"You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again.
Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes.
He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back.
The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped.
He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.
"Ruth!"

MAZE - The Endless Quest
As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18 she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore.
That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that.
The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go.
##############################
The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm, Everyone has a level, status and even skills are a common thing.
If your stats are good you can even become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters creatures and things that the regular world is missing such as magic.
The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream.
It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge.
The rhythm might be a bit slow for some but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it.
