Eren Kain was an ordinary engineer and inventor until the day the Tower of Trials appeared. A massive, otherworldly spire reaching into the heavens, the tower beckoned humanity with promises of power, wealth, and immortality—but also death. Unlike the others, Eren was forcibly bound to the Tower. No one else could enter until he began his climb, and he couldn’t leave unless he reached the top. Stripped of magic, aura, or any supernatural ability, Eren’s only advantage is his engineering genius and the technology he can smuggle in. From basic firearms to drones and exoskeletons, he uses every tool at his disposal to survive the monsters, traps, and bizarre ecosystems within the Tower. Yet even technology has its limits in a world governed by magic. As Eren climbs, he discovers the Tower isn’t just a trial but a puzzle. Its magic isn’t arbitrary—it’s systematic, a science he slowly learns to decode. However, one wrong calculation could kill him instantly, forcing him to balance experimentation with survival. He scavenges magic crystals, artifacts, and spell books, using them in crude, improvised ways to bolster his arsenal. Over time, he begins merging technology and magic, creating unique hybrid tools to overcome the increasingly insurmountable challenges. But why was Eren chosen? What secret does the Tower hold?

Ascension of the Exiled follows Azarion, once a god of immense power and wisdom, who is betrayed by the very deities he called kin. Cast from the heavens and stripped of his divine essence, Azarion is thrown into a desolate world where nothing remains but ruins and the remnants of forgotten gods. In this strange and hostile land, Azarion’s former glory is reduced to nothing but the fragile body of a mortal. With no memory of how he ended up in this world, and no power to rely on, Azarion must fight to survive against monstrous creatures, treacherous landscapes, and a corrupt system that has left the world in ruin. But as he journeys through the wasteland, he begins to uncover strange remnants of the ancient power that once flowed through him. Though his divine abilities have been stripped away, Azarion realizes that the strength he once wielded was not merely in his godly essence—it was his will, his mind, and his relentless pursuit of his goals. Alongside a reluctant ally, Sera, a skilled archer and survivor, Azarion begins to rebuild himself. He must learn to harness the power of the mortal realm, understand the hidden threats lurking beneath the surface, and confront the gods who exiled him. As he fights against dark forces that seek to keep him powerless, Azarion’s journey becomes one of vengeance, redemption, and self-discovery. In a world where gods are myths and survival is the only law, Azarion must rise from the ashes of his fall and ascend once more—not as a god, but as a force to be reckoned with.
