Where Dune explores power, the Caerith Quantum Series explores the soul. For readers of Dune, Hyperion, and Ursula K. Le Guin who crave philosophical worldbuilding, benevolent AI, and mythic space opera. The clash at the riverbank bought Lira moments, nothing more. Deep in the emerald heart of the jungle, guided only by the faint glow of the Tear of the Old Gods and the fragile voice of a deity in her comm-bead, she must navigate ancient temples, cosmic empires, and the collision of consciousness. 🎧 FULL VOICE-OVER AUDIO NARRATION: Listen to the complete audio narration and read ahead on Substack: https://caerith.substack.com

Both levers trail the field
Traffic and conversion are both below comparable stories. Cadence is the first lever — stories posting near-daily reached 25 followers 17% of the time; stories posting every few days almost never did. Get the flow going, then re-check conversion.
Benchmarks: 8,060 active Royal Road stories, percentiles within the 5–9 chapters band, cohort of 2026-07-02. Conversion is measured as followers gained per 1,000 views lifetime.
