Crystals of Blood and Ash is on hiatus until further notice; it will return at a later date and I am under less stress.

There exists a world where magic flows throughout, where the lives of most end when their HP reaches 0, where monsters roam throughout, and where mankind has hidden itself within towns and cities protected by the powerful Walls, ancient constructs capable of withstanding powerful blows.

One sunny morning, twelve-year-old Trevor awakens on a grassy field aware of this world's way yet lacking his memories. Unsure of what do do, he examines his outfit and then items on the ground before setting off to hunt his first monster. He soon finds that he's in a region with only one surviving town, a town that is slowly but surely dying. Trevor doesn't care much about that, however, as he's more interested in hunting monsters, playing with other kids, and just having fun in general.

To Trevor, there's no obstacle he can't overcome if he puts his mind to it, be it free-climbing a cliff soon after awakening without his memories or taking on a dragon so that he can get a fancy pair of boots. It doesn't matter that the dragon is old and powerful enough that no one in the area can challenge it. Trevor will do it... just after he kills some more monsters for their EXP.

July 2023 Posting Schedule: varies based on my writing pace.

August 2023+ Posting Schedule: TBD but on set dates starting then.

Important Information:

1) Not the Strong Lead tag. Trevor is an OP boy who's gonna do some OP things. He learns and grows quickly. Don't expect him to be in trouble very often.

2) This is NOT a man vs. man or man vs. society story. Trevor won't have very many - if any - conflicts with other people or with society. Seriously. This isn't a conflict-filled story.

3) Though the main focus of this story is that it's a story about an OP boy being OP, there will be some darker times on occasion but also fun times.

4) Regarding the Sexual Content Tag: there will be zero sexual content until he and the other guy are both over the age of 18 years. That will be a long time in-story and the tag is only there preemptively. Until then, Trevor will just have crushes and boyfriends as he grows up throughout the story (as real teens do). However, is not a romance story, so it will not be receiving that tag. The story's focus is mostly Trevor hunting monsters and exploring the area he's in.

5) Reiterating that this is not a conflict-filled story and its focus is on Trevor killing monsters, exploring the area, and his growth over the years while also being OP and doing OP things.
