Weight of It All

An Affinity. Most humans never get one, but the Goddess gives everyone the opportunity when they turn sixteen. With an Affinity, humans are given access to their internal energy and Skills. Magical powers that allow you to interact with the world in ways you could never imagine. When Terrence receives his Affinity, he is shocked to discover it has never been seen before within the Kingdom. Worse yet, his Affinity reinforces the thing he was made fun of for his entire life. His weight. Follow Terrence as he uses his Affinity to progress with the hopes of becoming a Dungeoneer-someone who explores and conquers Dungeons. Discover a unique world where Terrence and his friends learn about their new abilities, their Affinities, AND themselves. Their Skills will grow, and if they work hard enough, they might eventually Rank up!

With new knowledge, training, and practice under his belt, Terrence's Rank 1 abilities will be put to the test against the monsters in his path. The first semester at Prep is over, but an old tormentor, an unlikely instructor, a harsh test, and a tiresome journey will continue to push his limits. Can Terrence overcome them all? Will he buckle, or can the stress push him to Rank Up? Elsewhere, Uncle Tom and his Dungeoneering team find something unexpected in the Dungeon. After months of fighting, they are ready to earn a profit for their toils. Can they handle the new challenge, or will they die like so many others before them? Will the risk be worth it?

Into the Everwood, Prep's Dungeon Dive is here! Closing towards the end of Prep, Terrence and his team are now working harder than ever to Rank Up and progress in their Affinities. When an old acquaintance decides to stand in their way, will the team be able to deal with the threat? Packs of monsters will stand in their way, but will their fellow students be their most significant burden to overcome? For Tom and his group, the death of their friend is only the beginning. They're ready to leave the Dungeon for good, but will the Dungeon let them? Will Omar, the leader of the expedition?

The tournament finals are starting, and the group's hard work has finally paid off. Fierce fights await, but they've proven time and again that they have what it takes to push through the pressure. They've trained, they've Ranked up, and they're ready. But when a catastrophe hits, no amount of hard work could have ever prepared them. Preparations are done and war is coming - will Terrence be able to protect himself OR his family from the world around him? What happens if your life and everything you knew is blown away within moments?

A war is on the horizon for the kingdom of Prost. But for those from Krader, their lives were already turned upside down amidst the Collapse. Reeling from his loss and unsure what to do next, Terrence will need to refocus to earn his first Rank as a Dungeoneer.
