Ikarion Gate: A LitRPG Adventure Novel - Book One in the Ikarion Isekai Anime Series
********************
The architect of the Ikarion multiplayer VR fantasy game let his fingers run along the spine of a book-a quaint thing¸ with its leather binding and cloth pages-his grandfather's. A journal. Or a fairytale. It had hardly mattered which ... until now.
His grandfather had left it for him¸ the architect's sole inheritance from a vague¸ mysterious¸ oft absent man. The book? Hardly the stuff of science¸ focusing more on flights of whimsy and pathos. Gates to other words-realities¸ even. Dimensions¸ he'd called them in his meticulous scrawlings.
The old journal contained colorful claims of wondrous visits to numerous Realms¸ ranging from magical and wondrous to frigid and full of beings hardly distinguished from machines. There were ... other things¸ too.
They were great fictions¸ his parents had assured him. "Your grandfather loved to write his speculations. Shame he never tried getting published.”
But¸ what if these journal entries weren't stories¸ but rather¸ a collection of impossible truths? Was there an out there out there? If humankind could create artificial worlds¸ then surely some grand intelligence could design a collection of realities-a multiverse¸ for lack of a better term.
********************
Ikarion Gate follows the exploits of Tito¸ a down-on-his-luck and anonymous Imago slummer who logs in to Monad's Ikarion VR MMO to earn survival "gang protection” money in his alter ego identity as Card¸ the Hedge Merchant. With his fellow player friend Perk¸ the cheerful Agrarian Dwarf¸ and a host of other unlikely companions¸ Card is about to discover there is much more to the Ikarion game and its mysterious gate than he could have ever imagined.
Ikarion Gate is set in the world of the BESM Fourth Edition RPG's Anime Multiverse.
