Countless obstacles have barred Argrave’s uncertain path to kingship, most of all his own acceptance, yet now the race is nearing its end. His brother Orion has acted contrary to anyone’s expectations in defying his father, yet a kingdom is more than its king alone. Each of the kingdom’s dozen vassals have vassals of their own, and Vasquer is on the brink of shattering into countless petty nations as it did in the history Argrave remembers. The stain of bastardry lingers on Argrave’s claim, and unless he intends to earn a title without any power, he must act the delicate diplomat, ...

Problems are rarely as they appear on the surface. Argrave's dealt with all the surface has to offer, and now has to deal with that beneath it; specifically, that which lives there. The underground is a merciless place that can claim the life of even the most hardened adventurer, and the hard times there have created hard people who would much prefer the easy living offered on the surface. A cult prepares to strike at the Kingdom of Vasquer. Its leader has strength enough he might deserve the title of god he so boldly claims. In the coming tragedy, however, lies opportunity. In these ...

In the blink of an eye, a wiki editor’s deep and somewhat unhealthy understanding of a game becomes useful, usable knowledge when he inexplicably replaces the once-cruel royal bastard. Before he can start to push his frail body to use his deep understanding of the lore to handle the imminent apocalypse, or go off to stop an invasion, there’s a more personal task he needs to handle first. His cousin has a knife in her hand, and death in her eyes.

After a grueling journey, Argrave has come to what promises to be the end of the line. Here, years of preparation will combat millennia of a cycle of misery. The battle promises to be more than a simple struggle for victory. It has become bitterly personal, both for the sake of vengeance and the protection of loved ones. Even if Argrave can win, he isn't certain he can do so without loss. But the table has already been set, the die have already been cast, and the war has begun. All that remains is seeing everything to completion.

Defeating the invaders from overseas wasn't the end to a problem, but rather its beginning. Argrave's divine opponents have taken root in an empire that has prevailed for millennia to carry out an unrelenting barrage upon him and all his people. With a severe numerical and technological advantage, this foe would be nigh impossible to defeat under normal circumstances. Argrave can't impose the will of his small kingdom upon this vast empire, but perhaps all this dragon needs is a change in attitude. Argrave travels overseas, carrying the banner of a claimant. The man is far too ambitious and...

If there was a sentient calamity with the goal to end the world, it might meddle with the planet directly rather than waste time on its people. Such a calamity could exploit the volatile forces of the planet's core, ending everyone from within without seeking their say in the matter. That would be a brutally effective way for this thinking disaster to see its goal to fruition. That isn't actually happening, of course. But for Argrave, it'd be convenient if it was. He's crafted this deception to engage in diplomacy with the reclusive dwarves, who've mastered the depths of the planet and have...

I was the most powerful healer in my world—the best, having devoted my entire life to mastering the art of healing. And yet, for whatever reason, my brother feared that I sought to claim his throne, and he marshaled his forces against me.

I had lain down in my crypt to rest for a few decades, but when I awoke, centuries had passed. My castle is in ruins, my clan is gone, and necromancers are considered just a fairy tale for children. They take me for a healer. That's because the world is sick. And it's time for strong medicine.

Nathaniel's bus ride was supposed to be just another boring commute. Wrong. Now, he, 23 fellow passengers, and a corgi named Biscuit, are stuck in a "Hell Difficulty" Tutorial, battling monsters and leveling up to survive. Easy difficulty, anyone can handle.

With his terrifying talent for mana manipulation, Nathaniel decides to invest every stat point into mana.
