Keeping his head up and moving forward was what Koda Burke was best at. After having to emancipate himself as a teen and find his own way at a young age, it became part of who he was. The most important part, or so he thought. Until that the faithful day that chance aligned with fate, and his true worth lay revealed when he met with a dying goddess, someone who had lost hope and all but given up until she felt the call from across the void between dimensions.

With many challenges, trials, and tribulations riddling their path, Asterios and the girls successfully made it through the realm of valkyrjas and reached the Descending Spire's final floor.

One minute, I’m working a boring office job and craving more from life. The next? I’m dropped in the middle of a new world as a dragon with jet-black scales and obsidian flames to match. Luckily, I still have my human form, because the locals weren't happy to see me. Thankfully, one was a sweet fox girl who loves to daydream. Together we hunt to survive, build ourselves a shelter, and fight some dragon slayers—even recruit a cute battle-elf.

A town rescued from its fate. Duty is done and his home is now safe from the threat of the Crooked. Koda Burke was ready for a rest from the breakneck pace he’d endured since arriving on this new world. He’d fought, bled, and killed for the people of Amberpost, and been sent on his way with a pat on the head and a bag of coins by the town council. But at least people escaped the gruesome fate waiting at the hands of the Crooked. That was a good reward at least, right?

The girls' secret plan to surprise Asterios with an unforgettable birthday party was a complete success. Their personal presents were already considered very memorable, but he would never forget the day he was officially elected as a new nation's ruler with a unanimous vote from Glimmervale's residents, not to mention being recognized by the monarchs of humans, demons, and elves. The Dragon Valley's struggles only began, and the dungeon that had manifested beneath the country would be the least of its worries.

The light is fading. Shadows creep across Elystria and the Warrior Republic stands as one of the last strongholds holding back the void's desire to extinguish Elystria and its people for good.

While others see future leadership in him, he knows the truth—he'll either prove himself worthy of joining the Undying or get himself along with his friends killed trying.

The visit to Teira brought more questions than answers for Asterios and his companions. But, the things they discovered provided them with a strong lead.

A people to call his own, a place to belong, and a purpose in his life.

Meditations is a series of personal writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD, recording his private notes to himself and ideas on Stoic philosophy. The Meditations is divided into 12 books that chronicle different periods of Marcus' life. Each book is not in chronological order and it was written for no one but himself. The style of writing that permeates the text is one that is simplified, straightforward, and perhaps reflecting Marcus' Stoic perspective on the text.

Just drills, bruises, and the creeping realization that I’m not playing. I’m being played. My masters are NPCs who think they’re real. The system says I’m here to fight their wars. But a hunting accident changed everything.
