Advent of Ascension

When superhumans awaken, our world's narrative is forced to change. After twenty years of fine tuning, a myth has been created. To give hope to the everyday man—Hunters are glorified and can take on "any" monster—the awakening tests to become "chosen" are now a high stakes low probability lottery. Get the right results and change your life. If only that were true. Brodie is learning the hard way that gaining power always comes with a price. It isn't like the stories where one high ranked Skill suddenly changed his life. Instead, it's just brought more problems. Maybe that is because of the dead body, but that was a clear case of self-defense, wasn't it? Maybe it's because of the literal 'demon' that came with the power? Or maybe, just maybe, something more is going on. Something Brodie can only see the hints of at the edge of the tapestry someone or something powerful is weaving. Can Brodie juggle all the problems, revelations, and family to save the world? But, before he takes on the world, he must prove to the powerful guilds of Windsor that he and other miners can grow to become more than just cheap labor.
