Mortal Protection Services

The Earth wakes up to find itself surrounded by completely different stars. An announcement rings out across the planet: "We at Mortal Protection Services have relocated you to a foster system temporarily. Do not panic." . . Some of you are panicking, when we specifically asked you not to. What to expect: Sci-fi: Various densities, mostly soft. We got your warp drives and subspace enfuckulators, but also a touch of hard space reality. Who doesn't love a chewy candy with a hard shell? Comedy: From slapstick to erudite to troglodyte. We got stuff for any brow level you want. As well as many, many easter-eggs for sci-fi & fantasy nerds alike. Galactic horror: I'll leave the fully fleshy nature of that for you to discover a few chapters in, it's better that way. Fun with Letters: Silly little anagrams, and silly little acronyms. A Hyperspace Cat. (Proudly made by humans. No AI in Writing or Art. Cover by Instagram user: pedro_serpa_75)

The Infinite Has Edges

The first bell broke before anyone could ring it. Then someone started moving a mountain. Not a particularly promising beginning for the people living beneath it. High above an ancient city, under an ocean suspended in the sky, Aevran Sol is having a disagreement with an old acquaintance named Rhovel. Aevran would prefer that the city remain standing. Rhovel would prefer to see what happens if it does not. They have known each other for a very long time, and neither is particularly inclined to concede an argument. Unfortunately, this disagreement involves rather more than words. There will be extraordinary magic, weapons with histories older than kingdoms, and the occasional demonstration of why being immensely powerful does not mean being right. Or invincible. But this is not only a story about someone who can stand against impossible things. Long before the battles, before the centuries of knowledge, before Aevran became someone capable of arguing with beings that treat mountains as interesting objects, there was a boy with a family, a curious mind, and rather more questions than his parents probably appreciated. And that part of his life matters just as much. The Infinite Has Edges follows different periods of one extraordinary life through a vast world of magic, ancient mysteries, dangerous creatures, remarkable peoples, friendships, mistakes, discoveries, and consequences that do not conveniently disappear when the fighting ends. There will be adventure. There will be battles. There will be quieter moments worth remembering. And there will be questions. Quite a few questions, actually. After all, even the infinite must have its limits. Finding them might be the easy part. Welcome to the story. Loreforged
