Description: [edit] [history]

Gust steps into a world of cultivation and magical arts after his father's death sends him searching for answers.

With his father's lucky coin in hand, and an indecipherable journal in his back pocket, Augustus Perry stumbles into a world he never knew existed.

There, he finds a school of mages who speak of Gust's father as if he were a long-lost legend. They fear Gust's world and some even call him a demon. It is only out of respect for the coin's former master that the mages take him in and teach him their methods for cultivating mana.

But how could an immortal renegade swordsman turn into the quiet, withdrawn man Gust always knew? What brought him to Gust's world in the first place, and why did he never go back?

If Gust ever wants to know who his father truly was, he'll need to embark on the very same quest that drove his old man insane.

New Chapters M-W-F.

**This is my attempt at western progression/cultivation fantasy, inspired by stories like Cradle, the works of Er Gen, and more mainstream fantasy like the Wheel of Time and the Cosmere books.**
