The Ethersmith 1: A Progression Fantasy Adventure

By Matias Kallio

The world moved on from runesmiths. Vivi didn't.

A curse from birth has doomed Vivi to die when she turns eighteen. She's a masterful runesmith, and if she could just convince arrogant ether hunters that her family has solved runeswords' fatal flaw, she might earn enough ether to save herself.

When a rebellious spirit defies his handler to bond with Vivi, she becomes a fugitive, escaping capture only to land in an inescapable demonic prison.

The bright side? She's an ether hunter now-with an endless supply of monsters from which to harvest ether, hone her spirit's power, and finally test her runeswords.

But first, she must learn how to wield one.

Dive into an epic adventure following a hard-working, ruthless MC who pursues both crafting and combat while ignoring warnings about things being "impossible" or "forbidden."
