Description:
Torn from his ordinary life by cruel and capricious gods, a man is thrust into their Divine games in a strange new world. With his name stolen, he renames himself Gilgamesh, after the first and greatest hero. But as he's corrupted by his new powers and the whispers of a higher, darker Truth, he slowly walks the path of damnation. The more he kills for pleasure and power, the more he brings the evils of his old world to the new. For his dark destiny, long foretold, leads down a path of darkness and horror. Such is the fate of the Watcher of Deep Places.
This is an epic dark LitRPG with a morally grey, flawed protagonist who slowly descends into evil. A slow-burn tale that depicts a realistic reaction to an alien world and the corrupting influence of power and divine interference. With a rich world inspired by steppe, Middle Eastern, and Asian cultures, you can expect a subtle exploration of the nature of evil, a magic system with a dangerous cost, and a main character who's definitely a bit unhinged. This is a journey that will take you into the mind of a villain and explore how a person, when faced with overwhelming power and trauma, can become the very thing they were meant to fight. 149 • 2025-09-08 18:54:41
