Leon's family has been diagnosed with a new type of incurable blood disease. It's an absolute death sentence and when it turns aggressive, you only have a few more years of painful life left to live. His mother has just begun the last years of the disease when a person supposedly comes back from death with supernatural abilities. He talks about a choice you get after death--get an extra chance to come back to life, or die.
Even with Leon's diminishing life span, he won't consider the option of going there, until he meets another survivor who had the same goal as him and succeeded.
Leon has a choice to make—die now for a chance to save his mother, or die in a few years, where the disease rapidly melts his muscles from his own body.
He enters a game-like world, a sort of limbo, where his ultimate goal is to climb the tower of Katastroph before his mother's time runs out. There are a few problems with this though. The tower is almost impossible to beat, if you die you won't revive, and only three people in over twenty years have actually made it back. Leon has two years to climb the tower, with the help of the few people willing to try. People with agendas and problems of their own.
*****
The story starts pretty dark but goes onto a lighter tone. Then (more) dark again.
Disclaimer: This story is an experimental project and I hope to get any and all feedback you can give me.
Warning: First draft.
Chapters tend to be between 3400-4100 words long (about 8-11 A4-pages). Mentioning it since I've seen it in other fictions :P Sometimes they're shorter, sometimes they're longer.

I hope to release a chapter every weekend—the release usually happens on Saturdays, sometimes Sundays.
I really appreciate all comments and feedback, so if you have anything to say, feel free to voice it :)
************
A rundown of things you can expect to see: * Characters having different goals * Sometimes unlikable characters that grow—some readers love them, some readers hate them * Characters dealing with different traumas while chasing their goals * Lies and deceptions—what/who can you trust? * No sex scenes, and no dealing with sexual traumas * Stats, but not in battle * Tower climbing (once in a while) * A pretty grim, unforgiving world that poses as a generic fantasy setting (for the most part) * Progression—OP isn't a word that's used here
