Keziah doesn't like getting into other people's troubles. He learned that the hard way, many, many times. What good does it do? A "thank you"? A little bit of extra coin? No. Kez knows better than this, he would stick to completing each contract exactly as the instructions say. No extra work, no helping lost puppies along the way, his talking sword gives him enough headaches on its own. But a peculiar contract would force him to change his attitude, at least for the foreseeable future. He will uncover the secrets of this world, whether he likes it or not. ********************************* Adventure fantasy with a bit of progression. The world is based technologically on  late medieval/renaissance Europe. Magic system based on mana-like energy and controlling elements. No continent shattering powers. No harem, no overtly sexual content.  I try to aim for 1.5k to 2k words per chapter. What you can expect: adventure, fights, master and apprentice dynamic, mostly one POV, slow burn romance (not with the apprentice), more "traditional" style of fantasy rather than a full-on progression fantasy. The story will be long but it won't be endless. It will have an ending. 1 chapter per week on Tuesdays.
