A young man named Jason Hiro is depressed and feels as if his life is aimless, thus he volunteers to enter a cryogenics program so his body will at least be useful for science. He wakes up 100,000 years in the future, only to discover that humanity has gone nearly extinct, the humans who remain are all slaves, and the slave masters are the Demons. Humans are nothing more than chattel for their new overlords.
Demons now rule the galaxy, but Jason discovers he has a unique power called Wordsmithing, a magic which descends from the legends of King Arthur and Solomon, one that can rewrite the fabric of reality based on his imagination and cast by speaking a single Word of Power. Will Jason be able to uplift and save humanity? Or will the forces of evil prove too powerful to overcome?
Uriel gazes up at the singular levitating Kolvaxian, a foreboding premonition bubbling behind her eyes. As the ordinary Kolvaxians charge at her, she flaps her wings and leaps into the air, soaring well out of their reach. At the same time, the Psiovaxian flies directly at her while summoning an energy field formed from Primal…
Inside Chrona, Jason Hiro alternates between watching the Maiuran War unfold via the Spynet Sphere, and traveling into his warehouse to take care of several important side projects. Even if the battle on Maiura concludes in just one realspace day, that’s still 250 Chrona-days Jason can spend productively working on multiple projects to enhance his…
The Northern Battlefield collapses. With only Hope and a platoon of ordinary Legionnaires available to battle the rapidly growing number of Kolvaxians, they simply cannot contain the Plague’s spread. Hope tries. He really does. But it doesn’t matter. Even though the Second Wordsmith is one of humanity’s Champions, he is not a Cosmic. He can…
Belial’s Wordsmithium armor covers her entire body, leaving only the smallest gaps at her joints. Nanites rush in to fill those gaps anyway, protecting her from any poisons, toxins, or other airborne contagions that might otherwise threaten her. Her armor weighs in at more than 250 kilos, but for a Demon Emperor as strong as…
In terms of singular offensive power, humanity’s strongest soldier is without a doubt Lord Henry Cliff, leader of Jepthath’s Legion. Perhaps Demon Emperor Belial could fight him to a standstill or even overpower him, but neither have tested that possibility yet. In terms of combat versatility, humanity’s two greatest combatants are the Wordsmiths. Jason and…
The battle intensifies on Maiura’s surface. As minutes pass, more and more Kolvaxians continue to appear, but what worries humanity’s military the most is an unnerving discovery they make early on; a discovery that goes beyond their calculations. "What do you mean ‘it just appeared’?" Neil asks, bewildered. "It teleported in front of you?" "Yes."…
The Plague makes landfall on Maiura, but contrary to the expectations of the demons and the Volgrim, the human species does not immediately fold and descend into chaos. Utilizing the unique abilities of their Heroes, including both Wordsmiths, all the entities within the Hall of Heroes, and Hope’s children, the humans themselves begin activating a…
In an instant, countless failsafe warnings go off across human space. People jump into action, immediately enacting previously-prepared battle plans. Both of the Wordsmiths act in unison, and Neil Adams, still on Volgarius, receives real-time updates instantly. Jepthath stands inside the Hall of Heroes, transmitting his thoughts and the vision of multiple Legionnaires onto viewscreens…
"There he is! Little Timmy!" Jason excitedly whispers. His eyes light up with the joy of fatherhood as he hovers over his one-month-old son’s crib, where the infant snoozes quietly, having just gone through another long and tumultuous day of babyhood. Phoebe stands beside Jason, looking a little tired, but with eyes as warm as…
[Your skills are inferior.] Initiator Ferral brags. [This race belongs to me. I am more than a hundred kart-lengths ahead of you.] "It’s not over ’til it’s over." Jason says, as he stares at the screen. "This is the final lap. Anything can happen." [I have been in the lead since the very beginning. It…
