Potential is everything within the Vitrian Empire. Until a provincial orphan boy has the honor of surpassing them. An orphan with tremendous potential is found in the ruins of the Old City. Aware of the myriad risks and rewards that could come from harboring such a talent, the Assessor Elena bends the rule of law to adopt him into the House of Hunger. To earn his place Alarion will need to scrape and struggle. He must learn the ways of his new House, power through a grueling training regime and battle deadly fiends. All to obtain some semblance of strength before those who hate what he represents finally close in. After all, potential unrealized is no power at all. ---- What to expect: - A unique and crunchy LitRPG system - Weak to strong to OP. Eventually. - A MC who is stubborn, quite literally to a fault. But not stupid. - Swords and sorcery of numerous varieties. Emphasis on swords. Big Swords. - My bad attempts at dry humor! - No harems! - Detailed worldbuilding on a planet divergent from the Tolkien norm (Sorry no elves here!) ---- Book 2 complete! Chapters intermittent.
