[ WP ] A video game hero starts losing faith in his quest as he is besieged by game-breaking mechanics .

Blessed with the ability to turn back time, this quest was supposed to be easy. I was going to just run in, fight the warlord, and take back the artifact that protects my city. Things became too complicated and I keep on dying painful deaths. I've been trying to get through this room for what has to be days now. I ca n't tell how much time has passed from my perspective since I am forced to re live the same few minutes. 
 
 I am sealed in one of the antechambers before the warlords throne and it has enchanted everburning flames on the floor and cursed spikes on the ceiling. To help me get through, my goddess has granted me a spell to walk on walls. I used it before and it worked fine, but now that I have to use it, it's not working right. I think it has something to do with this room being saturated with magic. Sometimes, the spell fails entirely as I make my trek across the wall and I fall into the flames. Sometimes, the spell changes into an acceleration spell and I am flung into the spikes above where I am impaled. The worst is when the spell partially changed into an incorporeal spell. I become partially submerged in the walls as if I was nothing, but less than a second later, the spell fails and whatever is in the wall is fused to it. When it happens, I pray my body is engulfed so I can die quicker. 
 
 I ca n't control when I go back in time, or even where I go back to. It simply activates when I die and brings me back to when I was safe before. If my body's in the wall, I ca n't breathe and I die. If it's just my lower half, nothing kills me. I have to wait. 
 
 I... 
 
 I'm having problems remembering things about the city. For me, it's been so long since I've talked with anyone. I do n't know how long it's been since I've talked with anyone. I ca n't keep track of how many times I've died. 
 
 I've tried to commit suicide. It did n't work. I just popped back in like normal. I hoped that maybe if I did it, something different would happen. I guess I could n't even do that right. I ca n't seem to do anything right...
