For decades now, strange places inhabited with monsters have been appearing across the globe. People call them dungeons and those who enter them delvers. For years, delvers explored and conquered, becoming beacons of hope—idols in a world wracked by war.

Nowadays, thousands of youths each year undergo the Awakening ritual, foregoing their mundane life in favor of a more magical one.

Marco is one such youth. He has a cushy life and a good family that wishes only what is best for him. He isn't satisfied, however—he wants more. What exactly, he doesn't know. He only knows that inside the confines of what is considered normal, he won't find it.

P.s.

Before you start reading, I would like to say a few words. For starters, I never thought I would one day publish something on this website, and I want to thank all the other authors who inspired me to do so.

I would also like to thank whoever spends their time to read my novel—it means a lot. So, thank you.

Finally, I think it is imperative I warn you. I'm not a native English speaker: English is not my first language. If you see mistakes, feel free to point them out. I will correct them as soon as I have the time to do so.
