The Way of the Axeman

One moment, Caleb Vance was driving. The next, he awoke in a world shattered, two suns blazing overhead, and terrifying demonlings hunting him through a mutated wilderness. Forced to adapt or die, Caleb quickly learns his new reality is governed by a mysterious The Network, granting him levels, stats, and a unique 'Prodigy' title. But this isn't just about survival; a deeper 'Way' is unfolding, granting him the Seed of The Burden, an arcane power unlike any other. As he hones his newfound Executioner class, battling Night Howlers and Abyssal Terrors, he realizes he's part of a brutal, cosmic war. With the Breach looming and formidable Shadow-Hounds guarding an even greater secret, Caleb must push his limits. Can one man, armed with a hatchet and a unique connection to The Way, carve out a future in a world determined to break him?
