About this story
What if you were given another chance? Another life? What would you do with it?
Meet Joe. When Joe died, he did not expect a screen to appear inviting him to join the world of Illuminaria. By accepting, he joins a fantasy RPG-like world, with stats, skills, monsters, and quests.
While this is a progression LitRPG tale, it focuses far more on plot than progression. It is written to read more like a cozy first person D&D game than a system-driven race to phenomenal cosmic power.
I released a previous version of this story a while ago. This version has many of the same plot points but it has been reworked.
Expected:
• A slow-burn progression system. The MC takes a while to find his footing
• A healer-focused MC who grows into a chimeric being
• Injury and disease play a large part in this story
• Lots of world-building
• Chapter lengths: 1500 - 2500 words
Release Schedule: At least once a week.
