Riftside 2A LitRPG Fantasy Adventure
The forge is hot. The monsters are learning. And the hammer still won’t shut up!
Ash Aldrich has carved out a place for himself out on the frontier—blacksmith turned warrior, scavenger turned adventurer, and bonded to a soul weapon with a bloodthirst all its own. However, life out on the frontier is never peaceful. Not while there are monsters to hunt, noble houses to deal with, and an unruly sentient hammer to be pampered.
With the monster attacks temporarily halted, Dawnwatch gains some much-needed respite to fortify against the ever-evolving monster horde. However, danger doesn’t just lurk from Riftside’s dungeons, but from within as well as the guild’s main branch takes interest in Ash’s findings.
With no time to lose if they want to keep up, Ash, Eryn, Knut, and Nabeeh need to use what little time they have and risk it all to catch up, or stand helpless and watch it all burn.
He who holds the hammer shapes the world.
But what if the hammer shapes him too?
