The Elder of Mediocrity Fantasy Romance Tragedy Action Wuxia School Life Martial Arts Slice of Life
In a world of cultivators, psykers, mages, witches, conspiracies and a Cold War, everything is extraordinary. Well, most everything. Oz “Da Shan” Elderweiss is just your average guy in a not average world. He’s not that strong, he’s not that weak — and he’s not getting any better. Da Shan discovers that you’re never too old to have your own coming of age saga. Filled with a burning desire for revenge, but the inability to carry it out, he hatches an insane scheme to change his potential and achieve exponential growth. But his enemies are quite literally the members of his own household and his close friends. He must fight tooth and nail for what he believes in and for the freedom to carve his own path. Join him as he battles people with both the best and worst intentions, with his life on the line.

A lot of new content has been added to the early chapters since the end of May. The first chapters are still under construction and editing, but all the major changes are done.
I was a webnovel junkie for a long time, but I found it hard to find novels with solid characters, decent plot, philosophical underpinnings and a fully painted world to keep me going. I've taken from every genre I've liked to make a story that satisfies my own cravings for a good story. If you like the story or have suggestions please leave a comment or review. I hope this novel is fun, provocative but above all fun. Enjoy.
Yours truly,
James Paul Addington
PS I will release at least two chapters a week, or one really long chapter.
Concerning the tags:
The story is primarily Fantasy with Wuxia influence in some elements. Romance won't happen for the first two arcs or so (roughly 40 chapters), I want to build the world before I do that. Tragedy is because of an event that occurs in the book, not the tone of the book. The book is more lighthearted. Slice of Life doesn't occur till the third arc (the romance happens during that arc as well). Magic will also show up more in later arcs, but appears throughout. Reincarnation it's not a reincarnation like in the traditional sense, but it has a similar concept.

Legacy: A wolf's tale
Follow Akascha as she goes from a beast of burden to a lovely (well more like a slightly belligerent) young woman! Note.This is a shory story (about 25.000 words) I wrote a while back in high school. Therefore, the range and depth of the story might be a bit lacking, but I wanted to share it with you anyway now that I discovered RR. Although I would love comments or constructive criticisme (as one can always learn), be aware that I have - at this point in time - no plans of rewriting this story. Thank you and I hope you enjoy! Oh and before I forget! The first chapter is rather short, but the rest of the chapters will make up for it.
