Beyond the Skin of the World

RenStormrider
Indifference was his plan. Greatness is his punishment. Fengyu had a simple plan for his life: cultivate a sense of profound indifference, stay out of his royal brother’s shadow, and float through existence without ever being "useful." But the universe does not care for plans. As the Mytharok - a world of ancient, "preposterous" myths - has reappeared, while the so-called guardians of the universe prepare for dangers beyond comprehension and trials resembling the beginning of recorded history, Fengyu finds himself kidnapped, knocked unconscious, and dumped into a dungeon that seems determined to troll him into greatness. Alongside the "perfect" hero Mokai, he is thrust into a world-spanning game where magic isn't spells but science of 16 Higher Dimensions. As their world collides with an alien one, they are drawn into the fogotten history of the First Gates and the mystery of Firme. They must confront the open secrets long ignored, the forces that shaped the very structure of the universe and dangers that lurk beyond... Nothing remains as it was - not the world, not the balance of power, and certainly not who they believed themselves to be. For the greatest collision may not be between worlds - but between who they were, and who they are becoming. What to expect: Slow-Burn Epic Fantasy, High-Stakes World-Building and Character-Driven Plot. This is a story of the long game, a chronicle of discovering that the "skin" of your world is just the first layer of a much deeper reality...
