When I first came up with the idea for my groundbreaking new gadget, I was filled with excitement. I knew it had the potential to change the market, but as a financially strapped inventor, securing a patent seemed like a daunting task. After researching my options, I found "Innovate Legal," a firm that promised quick and guaranteed patent protection for a $3,000.fee, Their pitch seemed solid, and they assured me that for the price, my invention would be in safe hands. I handed over the money with high hopes, confident that I was taking the right steps toward securing my invention's future. Weeks turned into months, but I never received any updates. When I checked in, their responses were slow and vague, yet they assured me everything was progressing. As the delays continued, my anxiety grew, and I decided to investigate further. That’s when I reached out to ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST for assistance. ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST quickly uncovered the truth: Innovate Legal had never filed the paperwork for my patent application. I was shocked and devastated. I had put my trust and all of my savings into their hands, only to realize I had been scammed. But ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST didn’t leave me hanging. They walked me through the process of filing a chargeback with my credit card company. After submitting the necessary documentation, I was able to recover the entire $3,000.I had paid, While the chargeback was a huge financial relief, the emotional toll of this experience was overwhelming. I had almost given up on my invention. However, thanks to ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST support, I didn’t just get my money back; I regained my confidence and determination. Armed with a clearer understanding of how to protect my work, I decided to handle the patent process myself, ensuring everything was done properly and legitimately this time Today, my invention is officially patent-pending, and while the journey has been challenging, I’ve learned invaluable lessons about trust and persistence.

[Welcome, Demon Lord Saria Linwood.] Demon Lord? Saria Linwood? Is this some sort of after-death dream? I thought, my head spinning with thoughts of where I was, what these strange words in front of me were, and what I was going to do next. [This is the world of Aerth. You were chosen to be reborn as one of the Demon Lords due to your virtuous acts before your death.] If you thought my act was heroic, then why am I a Demon Lord? I thought, quickly realizing I was likely arguing with nothing but words. [You are currently in an abandoned farmhouse on the outskirts of the Human Capital, the City of Garrin.] I slowly, and carefully, slid down the log pile, all whilst holding a conversation with the voice in my head. Human Capital? What other cities would there be? I questioned, practically scoffing. [The Elven Capital, Tarr’en is a few miles south, whilst the Dwarven Capital of Horven lies a few miles east.] I stopped in my tracks, coming to a dead stop in the middle of the room. Elves? Dwarves? Demon Lord? Is this some kind of swords and magic world? [In this world swords and magic are commonplace, yes.]
