Character Page

I have been having request on Patreon for a Character Page. I know the group is getting larger, as Chu moves from a shack in the slums, out to the village, and begins to pave a way into this strange world. As such this page will continue to be updated to keep the readers from wondering 'who the heck is this guy?'

I cannot promise that there will be no spoilers on this page, but it really become useful when you enter into the third arc.

Note: 

• Life expectancy in the villages end at fifty. Over forty is considered very old and waiting for death. With the abundance of fresh food, hard work and good living conditions, the farm residents are better off that most in the Empire.
• Sersen life expectancy increases on gaining a lifestone, and is depended on the demon it comes from.
