And in between lies the Underworld — where brave soldier Sylas Runewulf finds himself after he dies. Following a mysterious blue prompt, Sylas journeys to the town of Ember Hollow to breathe new life into a quaint local pub. Dubbing it "The Old Lamplighter," Sylas hopes it will be a safe haven for weary souls. The prompt reappears with a warning of an impending invasion, and as Sylas works to decipher the message, he faces challenges, makes friends, and builds a community around his humble pub — one he must soon defend, or they'll all face a fate much worse than death.

She entered the Tower seeking death. Instead, she keeps finding reasons to live. In this life she is Bella, a jaded med student trying to catch up on centuries of medical innovation — or at least she was, before the Tower appeared. With the promise that she would find whatever she sought at the top, she entered hoping to end her curse. But even with hundreds of lives of experience to draw on, reaching the top is no easy task. The Tower is filled with wonders she could only dream of, and what she once believed was the peak of power turns out to be only the first rung of a much larger climb. Her foundations are unshakable, but the Tower is deeper, deadlier, and more exhilarating than anything she has ever faced.

One moment I was a nobody — a freelance web developer with a failed law degree and a cat who barely tolerated me. The next, I woke up floating in the void, staring at a glowing blue screen informing me I was now a god. A weak, insignificant one, but a god nonetheless. No instructions. No divine wisdom. Just me, a barren status window, and an empty faith with no followers. So I destroyed the last statue of the velmoryn goddess: if I was going to be a god, I needed worshippers, and a little divine intervention seemed like the right place to start. Now I have a broken and lost tribe looking for answers, a system I don't understand, and a world that won't take kindly to a new deity on the rise.
