<p>Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard's Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death sentence. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent's murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family's secret.</p> <p>Despite his best efforts to avoid "Adventuring," as his father would call it, adventure seems determined to find him. The big problems of his past seem to keep being eclipsed by the problems of his present.</p> <p>This is a bit of an experiment for me. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I have made efforts to detach the story from D&D mechanics and system. There is a time loop component to the story. I have plans for where the story will go after the loop, but when the loops ends I will reevaluate if I want to continue writing.</p> <p>Please provide feedback in comments or reviews. Or you can find the discord link at the end of each chapter. I am a little unhappy with the start of this story and am thinking of rewriting it, as you will see in the later chapers the story telling structure changes, and I want to tighten up the beginning. If you think it's good as is or should change please let me know.</p> <p>I will be posting 1x a week from now on. I have a couple weeks back log to post but this should keep me motivated to write.</p> <p>As a note for readers, text in [brackets] signified something I do not have art for. Diagrams, doodles mentioned in the story ect. I hope to make these someday but dont have the time or ability to do so.</p> <p>I also use them to explain something the Spellbook is doing that cannot be shown via text. Open to suggestions on a better way to convey this because I am not entierely happy with the way I am doing it now.</p>
