Gnome Alone

Throughout heaven and earth, I alone am powerful

After a fatal encounter with a truck in the middle of a careless performance, Dan, a slacker musician with little ambition, awakens in the vibrant, fantastical world of Castoria. Reborn as Krucose, a gnome bard with a lute and a voice filled with untapped magic, he’s given a second chance at life but the path ahead is anything but straightforward. In a realm teeming with mythical creatures, legendary warriors, and ancient secrets, as he journeys through dazzling landscapes and encounters curious companions, he discovers that strength alone doesn’t define a hero. Trust, self discovery, and the bonds he forges shape him into something greater than he ever thought possible. Krucose must confront not just the dangers of Castoria but also the enigmatic truth about his own reincarnation. Is he destined to be the bard of peace, or is he merely a pawn in an ancient melody of chaos? With friendship as his anchor, will Krucose be able to master his newfound powers or will his journey lead to an ending as unpredictable as the songs he plays? Dive into a tale of bonds, growth, and the mysterious strings that connect them all. In Castoria, even the simplest tune can rewrite destiny. "I Reincarnated as a Bard" is a tale of friendship, growth, and a destiny wrapped in mystery. In Castoria, every note Krucose plays unravels a truth, but not all truths are meant to be known. "It's not about how powerful you are or how lazy you seem, it's about trusting yourself, embracing the bonds you form, and letting friendship guide you toward fulfilling your dreams." :Krucose

Theron and Kael have been inseparable since childhood—a clever, sarcastic gnome and a confident, troublemaking werewolf prince. Together, they’ve terrorized their teachers, stolen cookies from the palace kitchens, and declared themselves “brothers for life.” But when Theron accidentally discovers he’s Kael’s fated mate, he knows the universe must have made a mistake. Why? Because Kael has spent years describing his dream mate in nauseating detail: “Big-breasted, long-haired, and so hot they’d melt snow just by walking into a room.” Theron stares at his reflection. Flat chest? Check. Short hair? Double check. Definitely not hot enough to melt snow. The Moon Goddess must be having a bad day. His solution? Pretend he doesn’t know. Ignorance is bliss, right? Hide, Gnomes were best at hiding. Except Kael eventually finds out. And chaos ensues. “You’re my mate?” “Uh… no, I’m not. You’ve got the wrong gnome. Goodbye!” Theron yells, making a break for it. Kael isn’t having it. He chases him down like a wolf on a hunt. “You think you can outrun me? You’re like, three .” “Four feet!” Theron snaps, before getting tackled. Now, Theron is stuck with a mate who won’t take no for an answer. “You said you like big-breasted girls! Look at me—I’m a twig!” Kael shrugs, grinning. “I’ve decided I like twigs.” “What about long hair?” “Yours is short, but it’s cute.” Theron throws up his hands. “I’m not sexy!” Kael smirks. “Not yet. But give me some time.”
