This is not a Riddick fan fiction but some thing which will come under Xianxia genre. Edit #1 - Please understand that this is my first work and I have improved a lot till the current chapter. I have yet to rewrite the beginning chapters and I am aware that they aren't really good. Still I hope you can read past the book 1 so you can enjoy the book just like many others who wait for it.Edit 2 # - This is an initial draft and sooner or later, I will definitely rewrite it all into an authentic book.Thank you, Gsd reddy.

There was no one around him, and he had no idea about where he was. The only thing he knew about himself was his name - Nashiro. As he stumbles around in confusion, he finds a village. He felt a brief moment of joy before he realized the dark truth, the people of the village had been slaughtered. Was he a part of the assault? Perhaps he was a villager? Or was he just in the wrong place at the wrong time? Determined to know more about himself and recover his memories, follow the story of a boy on a quest to reclaim his lost identity in a vast and dangerous world of grand opportunities, malicious individuals and magical intrigue. ---------------------------------- Hello there, this is a story I came up on my own. As an author, I'd like to interact with my community and get ideas and what I can improve on. I'm not perfect and don't expect a masterpiece. I may have a bit of experience writing as a hobby, I make mistakes and my style is a bit rough around the edges. I hope you stick around and watch me build this story up. I don't have a predetermined schedule and the releases will be slow. Since I got college, my schedule is most likely 1-2 chapters a month but that shouldn't be that bad since I get some time to think about what I can write in the story. Again, my apologies for that. I hope I have your support moving forward and that you enjoy the characters and their journies.
