Lost on an incomprehensibly vast and ancient world, a young man must struggle through impossible challenges and overwhelming odds to uncover the secrets buried not just in this fantastical place, but also deep within himself. With an unsure name and an even less sure past, Kade must navigate a society built in the literal shadows of dead gods. With more enemies than friends, he'll face unimaginable horrors and wonders alike on his Path to Power, a journey guided by a mysterious artifact he can't remove, the final creation of a mad sorcerer. In a place where magic is not only real, but seems to have its own will and deadly purpose, Kade must master the powers of this world, as well as his own mysterious gifts. But where does this other power come from, and why does it feel so much like the terrifying untamed magic that this world calls Chaos? Perhaps most importantly of all, what are the chains wrapped around his very soul, and exactly what are they binding? Note to readers: *Contains LitRPG elements: quests, stats, classes, and a carefully designed magic system with clear rules and progression  *These elements unfold gradually as the MC is introduced to the world. I’m trying very hard to write a great story, not just a great LitRPG.
