《The Legendary Ghost Hunter 》Auxiliary Chapter I: The World

[Disclaimer: This chapter is not a Jojo's reference.]
Because I just can't find a good place to toss in a description of the world in the story without ruining the flow, I'll just put one here. Bear with me.
The reality plane of LGH (this novel) is one massive island. If you've read my other novel, Ascension: Online, then it's similar to Ascentia... except instead of 8 continents, there are 26 'Districts'.
For clarity's sake, every District in this novel is just labeled from A-Z. Okay, that's a lie, it's just because I suck at coming up with names. Don't worry though, with all the context provided, it won't be confusing which District is which. I guarantee that.
In the center of the island, where District A, B, C, and D meet, the GHO (Ghost Hunter Organization) Headquarters lies. However, it is hidden from the public. In fact, it's actually way high up in the sky, above the clouds, and enhanced with invisibility and radar detection-prevention. The Districts' names go in alphabetical order from there, spiraling in a clock-wise direction outwards to the edges of the island.
District A, B, C, and D are a bit special in terms of layout, however. Each of the four is their own mini-island, far away from one another. Together, they are connected via long bridges hovering over the ocean below, and said bridges form a square around the dead center of the big island (each of the four Districts being a vertex).
The other Districts are all interconnected normally via roads, and connect to Districts A, B, C, and D via similarly-designed bridges.
Overall, the Districts closest to the center of the island have urban cities, while the Districts furthest away have pure nature. The ruralization is gradual throughout.
As for the total land size of this novel's world, the area of the island is roughly the entire surface area of Earth (oceans and all). The island is surrounded by water on all sides, and it's the only landmass on the planet... or is it?

One more thing. 'Eastern' in this novel refers to Ancient Chinese/Japanese style. Although the terms Chinese/Japanese don't exist here in this novel, the races still do, and they tend to live in the eastern districts on the island. Similarly, western refers to the western districts on the island, of course, but also means American/UK style stuff.
All in all, just remember this: The different human races from Earth do exist in this world and live in separate geographical locations, but they aren't distincted from one another using words like Asian or American. In addition, everyone speaks the same language, English.
If you have any questions regarding the world of this novel, just leave a comment and I will answer you to the best of my abilities without spoiling anything. That's all, now go read the first chapter and get addicted to this story!
Oh, and the world's name?

I AM NPC69
Permadeath. It is a concept that every hero fears in this dog eat dog world. However, to the brave souls that embark on these adrenaline-fueled battles where swords and shields collide, where magic flies through the air toward their unsuspecting foes to smite them into oblivion, the thrill of death is what makes this game worthwhile. A single misstep, and you will lose everything. If you die once, it is all over. Years of hard work, down the drain in seconds. With your livelihood in your world tied to ours, you will feel a sense of endless despair. Postmortem, you’ll be greeted by every hero’s worst nightmare... the dreaded character creation screen. As for me, you may be wondering who I am? Well, am I one of those heroes? No, far from it… for my role, is that of the guide. I lead those lost little lambs and show them the path forward. I am the one responsible for their lives. Their survival rests in the palm of my hand. But there is just one problem… I only have one job... but I can't even do it right. Please don't mind the beer in my left hand and the cigar in my right. I'm not drinking on the job, I swear. Volume 1 Available on Amazon/Kindle Unlimited

8 230Fulcrum: Season One
Jack loves his life. Yeah, he lives at the edge of a warzone between armies of monstrosities. You call it dangerous. Jack calls it Tuesday. Folks in town aren’t too keen on a fourteen-year-old running the only bar, but Jack has it under control. Maybe his customers trash the place more than he would like, but sometimes cybernetically enhanced mercenaries need to blow off some steam. With the help of Zeke—friend, mentor, monkey—Jack serves drinks to anyone who comes through his door. And for the right price, he might even sell you something with a bit more kick … something magical. When Corva gets knocked through the wall of his bar, Jack decides to help her out. Sure she’s being chased by a pack of bounty hunters and she’s got no idea why. But she can fight. Holy hell, she can fight. Jack could use someone like that to keep a little order in the bar. That should be a win-win, but Jack’s and Corva’s problems are bigger than either of them can guess, big enough change the course of the war. Fulcrum is a post-Armageddon dystopian science fiction fantasy with a taste of anime. Technology, magic, and a badass monkey. The drinks aren’t on the house, but you’re welcome to stay until last call. Chapters are released every weekday... unless they're short. Then it'll be a couple chapters that day.
