The Tired Mercenary Just Wants to Farm in Peace
The Silver Hands were one of the best mercenary companies in the kingdom. Now, only one remains. Kain Asheld buried the three people closest to him on a quiet ridge overlooking the valley where they promised to meet. He honors that memory with a deed to a farm, bought with his share of a final bounty and a desperate need for silence.
The dream of that new life requires more than just land. Locals call it Madder's Place. It is a disaster of rotting floorboards, collapsed roofs, and fields reclaimed by the wild.
The village needs him just as much as he needs the solitude. Support comes from unexpected places: a young collector named Oren, a sharp-tongued tavern owner named Sorrel, and a trust system that leaves payment in unlocked boxes by the road. As Kain clears the rot from his new home and tracks the wolves harassing the village, he discovers building a life takes its own kind of strength.
This is the story of starting over, and of moving on when you can't take the people you love with you.
Wolfe Locke
Wolfe Locke writes under a name that hints at myth and mystery, yet his stories are rooted in something far more grounded, an understanding of people, their struggles, and the ways they grow. Before turning to fiction full time, he served in the military, built a career as a social worker, and earned his MSW. Those experiences left their mark on his writing, giving his books an emotional core that balances the wild mechanics of LitRPG and GameLit worlds.
His journey into storytelling began much like the games that inspired him. Wolfe started by crafting guides for competitive League of Legends teams, then shifted into writing serial fiction for online platforms. Readers quickly discovered that he was not just building power systems or leveling frameworks, he was creating characters who feel alive, who wrestle with responsibility, connection, and resilience in the face of impossible odds.
