Stepping Wild (Dungeon Runner 04)

Tibs escaped the guild, by fleeing his home. But that was years ago. Years on the run, two decades of staying one step ahead of his hunters, while trying to gain access to dungeons so he could regain the strength that was taken from him and go back to enacting his revenge. But Tibs did more than search, he learned. read more books then he imagined existed, talked to Scholars, asked all the questions he could think of, but never got enough answers. and he trained. Dungeons speed up the gain in strength, they told him a long time ago, the only way to really become powerful, but Tibs won't let that stop him. So he learned as much as he could, and trained as hard as he could. and he made progress, Went from the bottom of Upsilon to somewhere in Rho in two decades. but he's now stuck, unable to push through the next step to advance. But he knows it's only a question of time until he can con his way into a dungeon and gain what he's missing. and he has time. those two decades barely saw him age a quarter of that, a young man, instead of a child. and he may be closer than he thinks. a mystery in a village leads to something unknown that could be the answer he's searching for if it doesn't kill him first.
