Rein, on the cusp on adulthood, found his family and town destroyed by forces beyond his understanding. Thus, the destiny within his heart called to him to seek out the cause of his calamity. So begins his journey as an advancer-- a title given to those who use magic to shape the world to their will. Author's note: I've always been a fan of progression fantasy. However, I do feel disappointed by many of them, with too many characters that vanish into irrelevancy, sometimes arcs that are overly repetitive and a lack of characters ideals. In this story, I aim to instill more character ideals, motivations, and integrate said characters throughout the story, and ensure their interaction with the main character remain relevant to his heart. Perhaps, it's best to say I want the story to have a 'human spirit' that one could feel in old-school wuxia and action/adventure stories.
