About this story
Veterans, friends, companions. When the world gave up on them, they created a new one. This is that story.
Includes:
A virtual world that the occupants think and feel is real. At least while they are in it.
Only 3 chapters are out of the virtual world in the entire first 600 pages.
Bits of bastardized Roman, Germanic and even Nepalese history mixed with light magic and fantasy elements
Light Litrpg elements. Made to assist in telling a story. Not as the point of the story.
Implied sexual situations. No detailed descriptions.
The Band - To the Mountains is published on Royal Road. FicGems only lists the story's details and links to it; the chapters stay on the original site.
