Synopsis
Summary: A series of catastrophic events brought civilization to its knees in a world on the edge of collapse. No one knows exactly how it happened, but it all unfolded in a single, devastating day—the day when a hand fell lifeless and stars plummeted from the sky. Empires crumbled, and a once-advanced world was obliterated. Clouds shrouded the sky, swallowing the moon, and the earth grew restless. Isolation gripped the vast lands, and the soil refused to bear fruit. Death claimed many, families were torn apart, bloodlines ended, and the extensive history of the world was lost to oblivion.
This is the history left by the ancestors from the year of the Great Reset, a bloody year marked by dwindling populations that transformed a once-safe world into a perilous one. The fall of human empires signaled the end of an era of intelligence and power.
The events of that time remain shrouded in mystery, but following the Great Reset, the world underwent drastic changes. The weather grew colder, the moon reappeared, and animals once harmless rose to power. Heavy snow blanketed the earth, concealing the remnants of a lost civilization. For thousands of years, the world lay in a deep slumber.
Zarek often dreams of that fateful day. In his nightmares, stars fall from the sky, leveling entire areas and erasing everything within a few miles. A red cloud of smoke rises into the air, a haunting reminder of the devastation that once was. These dreams, vivid and terrifying, leave him waking in a cold sweat, haunted by a past he never lived but feels deeply connected to.
This story takes place after the Great Reset, an event that nearly wiped out the human race. Shrouded in mystery, Zarek embarks on a journey to escape a crime he never committed. Aimless and desperate, he seeks to uncover the secrets of the old world, hoping to use this knowledge as a foundation to build a new future.
Note: This is my first book/novel. I've read many books, but I'm not sure if I can match the same quality. I'm a university student about to enter medical school, but I will do my best to update this as frequently as possible. Updates will be nearly daily. I would greatly appreciate any feedback—leave comments, nasty ones that criticize me to the core are the best, they will help me improve. Reach out, let me know what you like and dislike.
I will edit this heavily as I go along, so if you don't like it yet, let me know, and I might change it depending on what is being asked. This is indeed LitRPG, but it starts late, after the 10th chapter, so take it slow and give it a chance.
Please also do me a great favor and rate this novel. Your support will motivate me to write more and post more! There will be some corny parts, I incorporated some poems in there, and the dialog is mid... but let me tell you this, I will do my best to improve as I continue to write more.
Updates: They will not be frequent, mostly coming in once a week.
