LAMPLIGHTER — A Post-Apocalyptic LitRPG Adventure Some fires never go out. ------------------------------------------- Sean died under a collapsing warehouse roof. Twenty years as a firefighter, and that was how it ended. Except it wasn't the end. He wakes up in a world where mist has swallowed everything below the mountaintops. Monsters crawl through it. Cities cling to the peaks, and only three paths exist for anyone who wants to fight back: knight, mage, or Lamplighter. Knights get the glory. Mages get the respect. Lamplighters carry oil lamps into the mist and drag back whatever they can salvage from the world that was. Sean's new body belongs to Mars Mihael, a noble's son with no combat training and a reputation for failure. He could train as a knight. He could study magic. But when he learns what Lamplighters actually do, the choice isn't hard. They walk into the dark so others don't have to. He's done that before. Starting at Level 1 with a body that's never worked a hard day, Sean enters an Academy where half the students wash out and a quarter don't survive. But he's spent two decades learning to stay calm when everything goes wrong. The job hasn't changed. Just the uniform. Monsters in the mist. A world slowly drowning in white. And someone has to hold the line. Time to get to work.
