Very cool, is this for a tabletop campaign?

Writing, or rather written, a book, but it’s hard to find interested literary agents. So, I’m working on a complicated plan to leverage an audience for self publishing.

I suppose I’m implying such an assassination is how the book opens, but it mostly just translates to a shift in the way warfare is conducted - fewer battle lines, more war of information.

One of my school friends was close to Sarah Maas. I hung out with her a few times, and we played online games together for years. The secret to her success was her parents' money; they poured funding into her editing and publishing, and so she became a "self-made" literary success. I have mixed feelings about her.

I'd be curious about your work if you're willing to share an excerpt? Lemmy might be a suitable test audience if you're into it

I uploaded some now slightly-outdated versions of the first few chapters to Royal Road.

This is really good

I like how we can see into the character's head. We get his senses (darkness and snowflakes from his vision, blood on his hands from touch) and his memories (the priest). It makes him very human (Klyskin?). I dig it
