A Storm in the Fall

The Earth has vanished, and nearly a half billion people have been dropped into an extradimensional space called 'The Tutorial' But even though this seems like a game, it's actually a ruthless calculating machine designed to cultivate the strong and cull the weak. But not everyone wants to give in to the cynical, inhuman designs of 'The System'. Some have chosen to Defy their destiny. One young man is determined to prove, in a world of Cultivators, he can stay Human. This story is based on the setting of 'Defiance of the Fall' by TheFirstDefier. Storm in the Fall is non canonical fan fiction, though you will find the tone and approach is very different. Check out DotF.
