<p> Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. </p> <p> Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. </p> <p> Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he'll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it's too late. </p> <p> The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. </p> <p> While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it's grown on me, so I felt it's worth sharing after all. </p> <p> Thus, if you're looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I'll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it's easy to miss things when you know what's supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. </p> <p> <strong> Content TLDR: </strong> No harems, <em> probably </em> no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. <em> Does </em> / <em> Will </em> contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don't like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. </p> <p> Update Time varies, but goal is two chapters a week, typically Mon/Tues and Thurs/Fri, minimum chapter length ~4000 words. Sometimes longer, sometimes a <em> little </em> shorter if pacing calls for it. </p>
