Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge! Gilgamesh Ascension: Legacy of the Immortal - Book One Alright, buckle up, because “Gilgamesh: Ascension, Legacy of the Immortal” is about to take you on a ride that’ll make your last gaming marathon look like a tutorial level. Meet Liam Walker - a guy who thought the worst part of his day would be a fight with his ex and a cryptic warning from a fortune-teller with too much eyeliner. Wrong. One car crash later, he’s not just dead; he’s apparently heir to Gilgamesh, the ancient hero-king of legends. Now, he’s stuck in the City of Kings - where gods, monsters, and epic legends are all very much real, and absolutely out for his immortal blood. Liam’s history buff skills might’ve been handy for trivia night, but here? He’s got to think, strategize, and fight his way through a world where every quest is deadly, and every enemy knows his legendary title. Lucky for him, he’s got a few system messages and power-ups on his side - not that they’re doing much against vengeful deities and legendary beasts. And did we mention the Bull of Heaven? Yeah, he’s on a “crush all newcomers” streak, so good luck with that. Expect: Epic RPG mechanics, quests ripped straight from myth, and skill trees that’ll have Liam choosing between god-slaying and “don’t die today” abilities. From leveling up to unlock the strength of Gilgamesh to teaming up with allies who may or may not be on his side, Liam’s journey through the City of Kings is a non-stop adrenaline rush through ancient legend - but with way more sarcastic system messages. This Story Is About: Liam Walker, reluctant demigod, gamer, and a guy who thought “epic legacy” just meant some cool loot. But in the City of Kings, legends aren’t about fancy gear - they’re about survival. To claim his place in history, Liam will need to face down mythic beasts, dodge ancient enemies, and learn the fine line between hero and conqueror. For fans of: Reluctant heroes, deadly quests, and a world where your last mistake could be your last breath, Gilgamesh: Ascension is your next level-up. And remember - if you see the Bull of Heaven, run. Note: I post regularly, usually every other day, though with the Writathon, I try to post more, because I need to get out 55k words per story in 30 days.
