A Raven's Game of Change [Progression Fantasy, Sci-fi with LitRPG elements]

New story: If this completed novel grabbed your attention, consider checking out my new work as well. A follow, rating, review, or even a simple comment helps me greatly as its author!  In the last stronghold of a civilization in ruins, a centuries-old curse claims the young before their time. ​Faoros's friends are dying, and all the while, his teachers spout the same platitudes: study, practice... repeat. Yet, the curse remains. ​Desperate for a cure, the ruling Lords engineered the Game—a simulation of the past world built in the hope that future generations might find wisdom in their ancestors' mistakes. ​But Faoros is tired of empty promises. He enters the Game to break the curse, only to uncover a different truth. Confronted by a simulated woman fully aware of the outside world, he discovers that this fabricated reality conceals the Lords' darkest secrets and the curse's true origin.
