He who doesn't play well with others, plays with himself. Lukas Zaun has been a thief, an assassin, a spy, an ambassador, the herald of a dragon god, and a demon lord's enforcer. And he did it all, sitting on the beach, watching the waves, and enjoying a cup of tea. That's the advantage of having clones. Now, he wants to become an archmage and try his hand at godhood. It means he'll need to start from scratch in a new body and on a new world but that's no problem for someone who can be in several places simultaneously. Pursuits of a lifetime mean little to a man who lives multiple days while others toil through one. Posting Monday to Friday.
