About

Sometimes, all it takes to set the world ablaze is a few new ideas.   John Hall did everything right. He put in the work and the hours, got his degree, and after a lengthy job search, he was settling in at his dream job in the field of Process Engineering! It's a shame that not even a week after John started, he woke up in the forest in a strange fantasy world steeped in Japanese mythology. Driven away by fireball-throwing locals who didn't take kindly to his presence, he retreated to the monster-infested woods, took up residence in an abandoned fort and rebuilt it... in between working on matters of the arcane from scattered tomes he taught himself to read.  It has been five long years of survival, and the now artificer is slowly creating a more comfortable life even as the isolation wears away at his psyche, but this can't last forever. Danger and opportunity arrive on his doorstep in the form of an injured kitsune, and in aiding her, he is dragged into a world in conflict, where he'll have to harness his unique knowledge and perspective to survive… Updating daily until I catch up to my backlog, then one chapter weekly on Tuesday.
