The Elder Lands
B63/100Web serial by B. Salem
Lucan is the son of a landed knight in a kingdom surrounded by diverse threats. As he comes of age, he must make peace with both the tasteful and distasteful aspects of his responsibilities — but most important of all, he must find a way to either tame or accept his own ambitions. In a realm where an underground labyrinth births monsters that hunger to climb into the world of man, it's difficult to be a noble and dangerous to be a warrior. Lucan must navigate a maze of mortal peril and political intrigue if he is to survive and, perhaps someday, thrive. An action-adventure kingdom-building LitRPG focused on individual-level progression — no territory status sheets, and the RPG elements stay grounded rather than overwhelming the story.
