What young boy doesn't crave adventure? What young man doesn't wish to be a superhero? But time marches on, life grows dull with responsibility, and old dreams are forgotten.

Morgan used to be a pretty normal guy — college by day, online gaming by night — until he got hit by a car and a man in a wetsuit appeared with an offer: a second chance at life in a world built like the games he loved, with the promise of great power for those who complete the Tower of Power.

Steven awakens to a nightmare. Transported to a brutal medieval kingdom on a faraway world, he wakes up as Kivamus — the exiled third son of a Duke, now the newly made Baron of a crumbling village called Tiranat.

But managing a starving village through the coming winter and navigating the cutthroat world of medieval nobility is just the beginning of a very long road.

John, a 37-year-old widower, is feeling lost. Grief, regret, and the weight of the past push him to long for something new. When he discovers a way to travel between worlds through dimensional Gates, he takes it. His class has the potential to be overpowered, but he's not in it for fights, fame, or power. He moves at his own pace — healing, helping out when he feels like it, and keeping track of it all in a kind of diary. It's more about the journey than the destination, about magic and new places and figuring out how to live again. This is a slower-paced LitRPG written in a semi-journal style, focusing as much on the inner journey as the outer one.

Elidranthia Shadowstep was everything you'd desire in a fictional villainess — her tongue as lethal as her concealed daggers, a connoisseur of chaos, a leader of assassins, and an unhinged lover of all things stabby.

Born with a rare, terminal disease that took away everything she ever had, Melia made the most of her limited time playing Fantasy Online — a virtual reality MMO where she could run, jump, explore dungeons, craft equipment, and build a living world alongside other players.

But if someone tries to make her into the next dark lord, they're going to have a problem.

Will she become a savior, or this world's very own Demon Queen?

They are far from alone. The natural disaster that claimed their former lives took many of their fellow university students with them, each carrying their own dreams and baggage into the Growing World. Watch as they take their first steps, gradually reshaping their new home — and being reshaped by it in return.
