I wanted to give a lot of thanks to my recurring readers. You guys have made it possible for me to learn from every story I launch, so that each one propels further and further from where I started. My first story, The Legend of the Luminaires, was my initial foray into serial writing, and was a story that harkened to my childhood--built on the backs of coming-of-age movies like The Goonies and Stand By Me, with a more than a little inspiration taken from the original Dragonlance trilogy, and given an modern uplift, aiming high for deep characters and a world filled with lore and secrets.
Heroine stemmed from me wanting to write something far more cozy than Luminaires, but with those deep character profiles that I love writing. In essence, Hallowed World is a spiritual successor to The Legend of the Luminaires, with a focus on an isekaied engineer, in search of his sister on a hollowed world, far from ours, and filled with epic battles, mysteries, secrets, and those moments that punch in the feels. . You may see a few familiar things pop up, from time to time!
Go check it out today, guys! Let's make this one soar! It's one part progression fantasy isekai, one part crafting, one part adventure in a fragmented world!

The Hallowed World [Isekai, Crafting, Progression Fantasy]
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
He had to grow wings, to soar into the depths to save those he cared about...
Shawn was an emerging engineer climbing from a rough upbringing before a portal dragged him and his friend away from Earth. He was told by the Radiant who summoned him that they would save the world.
Except, his summoner just used the last of her divinity to get them here, and they're outmatched against her insidious, power-hungry brother. He commands an army of zealots, determined to make the world whole, or shatter what’s left of the hollow planet to pieces.
But Shawn has a mission of his own, to find his sister stolen away and brought here to this realm of gods, magic, and monsters. He makes a deal to help his depowered summoner, in exchange for helping launch a rescue mission, and imbues a dangerous power into himself, to fight a living god.
Armed with the powers of ice, fire and force, and his engineering know-how, he has his work cut out for him. He'll equip his friends with cutting-edge weapons and equipment inspired by Earth technology to give them the edge they need, and jump-start a magitech revolution. Shawn and his allies will delve deep into this nested realm of monsters, mysteries, and secrets, toward the core world in their efforts to confront a tyrant deity…
...And save the ones that matter most...
Take flight into the depths of Remaria…
What to expect:
* A fantasy isekai adventure into a fractured world, with detailed worldbuilding and complex characters.
* Adventure, slice-of-life, crafting, and intertwined personal quests for the main cast as they face the dangers of this world together.
* Progression elements are more than numbers--allies will bond, powers will grow and be trained, and tech will advance.
* Violence and danger are lurking elements in Remaria, as are the mysteries and secrets buried within the depths of the world.
* Rating: PG-13. There's violence, the heroes have old wounds in their past, and some language. Expect some sensual content of a non-explicit kind down the line.
* This story is a somewhat slow burn. The characters will keep progressing, as will the dangers they face.
