This is a slow-progression kingdom-builder story, with a lot of focus on world-building and eventually, industrialization and tech-uplifting. The story is going to be very, very long. Settle in for a slow burn, where the journey is just as important as the destination. Welcome aboard!

Steven awakens to a nightmare. Transported to a brutal medieval kingdom on a faraway planet, he finds himself in the body of Kivamus, the exiled third son of a Duke. Banished to a crumbling frontier village called Tiranat, a bandit-ridden backwater located within untamed forests, Kivamus faces a harsh awakening as its newly made Baron.
Tiranat is a far cry from Steven's comfortable London life. Here, survival is a daily battle, resources are scarce, and technology is a distant dream. Yet, a flicker of hope remains for Kivamus - memories of a technologically advanced world.
Armed only with the ingenuity of a modern mind, Kivamus defies despair. He sees potential where the villagers only see struggle. He dreams of using his knowledge to forge a new future for Tiranat, a future fueled by industry, a concept alien to this medieval society.
But the path to progress is full of challenges. Navigating the cut-throat world of medieval politics, earning the wary trust of the villagers, and overcoming the limitations of a resource-scarce world are just the beginning.
This is the story of Kivamus, a man reborn, forced to carve a new destiny in a world both harsh and exhilarating.
But before anything else, he will recreate indoor plumbing, dammit!
