Action

Zaren saved the world once, and it cost him everything.  But when a goddess seeks him out offering something impossible, he has to set aside his hatred for the divine. A threat from another realm threatens their world, and only a goddess whose domain is far too intimate for Zaren’s liking is convinced of its existence. She needs Zaren to prepare the world for a war nobody believes is coming before its too late. The only problem? Her deal involves resetting Zaren’s level back nearly to one.
    Alone and with only a shadow of his former power, Zaren has to collect both levels and allies in the hopes he might stand a chance against the looming threat. But the world he’s trying to save isn’t quite the one he left behind. The rules have changed, and he needs to learn how and why before he stands a chance of saving anyone.
    But if Zaren wants to have a chance at completing his impossible task, he’s going to have confront the scars of his past and unravel the darkness that lurks within him. A task that might have more to do with his mission than he previously thought. Luckily, those put on his path, seemingly by fate itself, seem more than willing to offer a helping hand. And, if he plays his cards right, quite a bit more.

    What to expect:
    -Overall plot driven with a serious tone
    -While not the first story I've ever written, it is the first erotica I've ever attempted so expect me to be somewhat inexperienced in those areas. Feedback is always appreciated.
    -Dark themes, traumatic pasts mixed with lighter moments that will slowly head towards happier waters as Zaren fights against the world he finds himself in.
    -Longer chapters, almost always over 5k words
    -A competent MC with a tortured past doing his best to move forward
    -Occasional other POVs from various characters, sometimes not immediately relating to the current characters (though they will always factor in eventually)
    -Plenty of smut. Though it isn't the main focus of the story and doesn't start too strong, it will ramp up over time.
    -LitRPG elements with less emphasis on number crunching and more on the end results so as to not bog the reader down with numbers and data
    -A wide cast of characters, races, skills, classes, etc.
    -A world that isn't openly smut-themed in nature, but there might be some secrets Zaren uncovers as he explores it...
    -No NTR, incest, furry, or generally taboo kinks
    -Current Update Schedule is Monday/Friday at 6pm CST.
