Retired Archmage Starts a Town 4
(2026)(The fourth book in the Retired Archmage Starts a Town series)
A novel by EvolvedRaccoon
It has been one year since James Wanbrook arrived on a hillside with his hands on his hips and decided to build something.
Rune Hollow has a town council, a market that traders plan routes around, a silver operation, a named Steam Elemental, and a twelve-year-old who holds the Third Circle detection working for three minutes and twelve seconds before breakfast. The settlement is doing well. Everything is doing well, in fact — the ground, the crops, the ironwork, the people. Better than it should be. Better every year.
Nobody has asked why.
Then Wren's extended survey reaches the northeastern edge of Thornfield's territory and finds a structure in the deep rock that has the quality of architecture rather than geology. Then a settlement called Deepwater sends word about a woman named Tomas. And James, who has spent a year quietly assuming he chose this place, begins to suspect that the choosing may have gone the other way.
Genre: GameLit
