Runes of Shadow's Path : The Veil of Dark Intentions

Runes of Shadow's Path: The Veil of Dark Intentions Embark on an epic journey where magic is code, reality is malleable, and every choice reshapes the world. In a land teetering on the brink of chaos, one man's wit and willpower could alter the fate of an entire realm. Adventure awaits at every turn, and the stakes have never been higher. David Goodchild isn't just a runeweaver; he's a tactical genius and a maverick of mind and magic. But his journey to Eldoria was no accident. On what seemed like an ordinary date, a mysterious woman—who is, in truth, a goddess in disguise—decides that David's "red pill" views need to be tested. She pulls him into a realm where societal norms are upended, and survival hinges on adaptability and understanding. Stranded in the rugged outpost of Brackhold on the edge of the wild, David quickly realizes that survival demands more than just wit—it requires mastering the game's very code. With sword in one hand and runes in the other, he embarks on an epic journey toward the heart of the province, battling rune-bound beasts, navigating treacherous quests, and unlocking hidden abilities that push the boundaries of reality. Eldoria is a land where alliances are forged in fire and broken with a whisper. Rival factions vie for dominance, and powerful women—be they rival queens, enigmatic mages, or cunning courtesans—hold the keys to kingdoms. Armed with a philosophy that challenges the very foundations of societal norms, David must decode their intentions, turning potential adversaries into unexpected allies. Harnessing the LitRPG elements of this new world, David exploits game-like mechanics to ascend in power, outsmart his enemies, and redefine what's possible in runeweaving. As he delves deeper into Eldoria's secrets, he discovers that magic here is as programmable as software, and reality is more malleable than he ever imagined. The Veil of Dark Intentions is a thrilling fusion of sword and sorcery, progressive fantasy, and LitRPG excitement. Join David as he levels up in a realm where every choice is a strategic move, every battle is a test of skill and intellect, and the difference between victory and defeat lies in mastering both the game and the shadows that lurk within it. In a world teetering on the edge of chaos, survival isn't just about strength—it's about challenging the system, rewriting the rules, and embracing an adventure that transcends reality itself. For readers who revel in epic, large-scale fantasy worlds like The Wheel of Time and other grand sagas, The Veil of Dark Intentions offers an immersive experience set in a land rich with ancient history and formidable monsters that roam the wilderness. Eldoria isn't just a backdrop; it's a vast, living world filled with forgotten ruins, legendary creatures, and secrets waiting to be uncovered. The intricate world-building lays the foundation for a sweeping adventure that will captivate those who seek depth, complexity, and a journey through a realm where the echoes of the past shape the destiny of the present.

Brimful Depravation

Front Page is "NAÍNDRA NUXINUS - CADET CUNN-69". The world is dangerous, yet, there is beauty in the chaos if you learn how to appreciate it. The "Imperishable", Entities Above Everything Else, understood this undeniable truth eons ago, gifting to the Mortals a few tools to overcome the challenges across their lives. With this, amusing their own boring existences, looking with enthusiasm what new story could unfold, or if the same mistakes would be done once again but by a different person. The First Gift, is "Shards", called "Cards" by some, this otorgue instant rewards when you exchange them in an "Imperishable Monolith". The Second Gift, is the mentioned structure, capable of craft almost anything if you have the recipe, blueprint and the required materials and ingredients, a true aberration depending on who you ask. The Third Gift, is the "Perennence", with a 100 you won't Die if you are slain, you simply would "Respawn" in a "Memory Hall", making you partially Immortal, because as long as you have 1 of Perennence, you wouldn't be really dead, and someone else can "Revive" you by providing the missing resource. However, this comes with a drawback, you become a "Servant" of the person or thing that save your life, at least until you repay the Perennence plus an Interest of 50%. The Fourth Gift, is "The Memory Hall", unfortunately, they had an evil twin, "The Howling Wall", which are created in places that had seen too many "Take Downs" in a short span of time; Differently to the prodigal twin, you must have a minimum of 25 Perennence to be Respawned, otherwise, at best, you become an Immaterial entity, similar to a ghost, if not, a mindless beast or a simple Drone for a Hive Mind is not far fetched. Lastly, The Fifth Gift, is divided in three concepts, "Repercussion", "Traits" and "Work", being the last, one of the most unfair of all the Gifts, as you can't change your Work under any circumstances, which applies even for "The Imperishable". But the Gifts don't come for free, as they attract a series of weird creatures from unknown territories, sprouting the so called "Graveyards", "Factories", "Hives", "Nests", "Lairs", "Crops" and "Farms" across the entire world of "Leathemnur". NO CHEATS NO PLOT ARMOR NO VANILLA EASY LIFE DON'T GET FOOLED BY THE START A FAIR SHARE OF: ACTION BEAUTIES MYSTERIES A WHOLE LOT OF: SMUT BONDING INDECENCY COMMENT FOR: KINKS DOUBTS SUGGESTIONS Additional Information: I would try and publish TWO or even THREE Chapters a Day, and FOUR up to SEVEN Chapters on Sundays, depending on my schedule. English is not my first language, that is why, any mistake I made across the story, feel free to point it out for me to correct it as soon as possible.

GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions be known. Thank you.
