Fistful of Levels — Book 7: Roadwork

Roads don’t keep order—people do. Drew Armstrong is still permanently Level 1, still carrying a mop, a teacup, and a talent for ending fights without adding bodies to the count. When three caravans hire his witness-only escort—“clean seats, public refunds, med first”—Drew and the crew roll out to tame a choke-point called Three-Spans… and the toll artists, “express” pass peddlers, and parade drummers who make it dangerous. Armed with benches, chalk, and a stubborn rule called Read @ Knees, Drew turns chaos into a corridor: rope to peg (low), Single Signal (hands or bell), Cup-Rail—do not cross. Bandits learn what a gentle seat feels like. A swinging gate meets Stage Door. A sideways surge runs into Barrier Bash and thinks better of it. And when a clinic needs through, the crowd hears two quiet taps on the rail and moves. But winning isn’t holding the line while the hero is there—it’s leaving a room that behaves after he’s gone. With Lysa running the ledger, Squire minding dignity, and the Kid Crew posting plates, Drew has seven days to make the rules stick, crest-free and public… or watch the corridor slide back into someone else’s profit.
