Being mistaken for an Ancient Predecessor usually results in heavenly benefits. Not for James Anderson. After being thrown into an isolated training realm, he is quick to figure out that there is no tutorial. No guidance. No ancient being to fully unlock his system. For eons he remains stuck by himself. Only system notifications and rewards appearing out of thin air keep him from going insane. But even that eventually stops working.

The Astralacan expedition has achieved more than anyone imagined—thanks largely to Maglen and Dro-Gar’s fateful choice to become demon hunters. With the guidance of Ahnjen, a powerful Olumian advisor, the humans have carved out a fragile but promising reputation on the continent of Olume. Yet not all of Olume’s rulers welcome their presence. Forced into the wild, uncharted regions of the land, Maglen and his companions encounter strange new beings and face challenges unlike any they’ve known. Danger escalates at every turn, drawing them deeper into Olume’s shifting political currents.

So the entire mage world is looking for me. Who cares? I’m not going back. I’ve finally tasted freedom, and even though I hate that I accidentally left my sort-of-boyfriend behind, there’s no way I’m giving this up. Not yet. I’ve got things to do here. If I’m going to change the world, I’ll need to see it first. Preferably before Mother reduces everything to dust, waging her deadly war. So, I’m blending in. Learning what it takes to be a regular mage. Pretending I’m not the missing heir plastered all over the news.

Maglen, and Dro-Gar, have reached the legendary continent of Olume. Maglen has the responsibility to arrange alliances and future trade agreements on behalf of his Emperor Riklen. That begins with trust. Earning trust, as a human in a land that has no humans, can bring unexpected challenges fraught with pitfalls. They allied themselves with an odd-looking elf named Ahnjen.

Maglen, a hero of the Freedom Wars, was an amazing leader of warriors at a young age. The tolls of war tainted the man. After the wars, Maglen became a loner. He had become bitter, xenophobic, and very rude. Summoned by his emperor, he is encouraged to lead an extremely important expedition in search of the legendary continent of Olume. At first skeptical and reticent, Maglen argues against the perceived validity and value of the expedition..
