Re: Demesne - a (NOT LitRPG) Dungeon Fantasy Frontier settling story, Sanderson Laws-compliant magic
#1
NOT a LitRPG. Nothing against them, but most people see Dungeon and assume some sort of game-like interface. This is a high-fantasy story, with a Sanderson Laws-compliant magic system.
Demesne is the story of the wizard Lori and her group of settlers, who are one of many groups trying to claim land and settle a newly discovered continent beyond the ocean. Setting up a Dungeon to protect them against the Iridescence, a rapid-growing taint that makes the whole planet hostile to intelligent life, the settlement must start with nothing but the clothes on their backs and the tools in their hands to build a new home. While the Dungeon creates an untainted area they can leave in, the titular demesne, they still need to grow and build everything themselves...
Lori, however, is a bit of a megalomaniac. And thinks the people around her are idiots. And doesn't trust this charismatic young leader who's probably a lord pretending to be a commoner. But if she wants the settlement to eventual go beyond sleeping on the ground and hoping their tents don't leak, she's going to have to work with what she has... and hope the random dragons that come along don't raze everything to the ground.
