Receiving a Mark from the goddess is all Rayden wants in life. Too bad he’s not from the same world as everybody else. Cloned by a dead god and abandoned on a desolate planet, Rayden falls into the arms of people who would ostracize him for years to come. Rayden is unusual. Not only does he look different from everyone, but he continues to struggle with training. Yearning for strength, Rayden hopes his upcoming Marking Ceremony will prove his worth. But when a sudden attack by a Nagari war band drives Rayden into an ancient facility, he meets someone he’d never thought he would: himself. Now faced with a choice, Rayden must decide: should he follow the dead god’s plan or carve out his own fate? Click here to read the first chapter. **This is my first time writing in a web novel style. I’m very excited to share this story with all of you, and I hope you enjoy the characters and world just as much as I did creating them (or more; I won't hold that against you).** Readers can Expect: -A character-driven story full of action and adventure. -Multiple fantasy/sci-fi worlds with diverse cultures, magic, and technology. -A new take on the reincarnation genre with clones, magical AI, and a weak to strong protagonist. Updates: Mondays, Wednesdays, & Fridays All chapters will be right around 1,500-2,500 words. **Romance is going to be a part of the story, but it will only act as a subplot and will be a very slow burn.** ***Stats will show up part of the way into the story, but they don't show up for the first several chapters. However, I am determined to make it satisfying when it does happen.***
