Your average save the world trope with a dark twist.

Currently: The Oracle's Penance

Oracles were known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator to give guidance to the people. What does it mean if the title of Oracle is bestowed upon an individual? A call for adventuring, dungeon diving, slaying monster, right? Maybe. Before an individual named Kihet, An Enui from a secluded village could fulfill his dream of embarking a grand adventure, a tragedy from his past returned to haunt him.

Kihet couldn’t remember much of an unfortunate accident that left many important hunters and loved ones dead. He only recalled a vague memory of a mysterious man etching a cursed symbol on him and recited some words from an ominous book in hand.

"For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested.
Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials.
Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk.
Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world."

What does it mean? Does it relate to the mysterious Tower only Kihet and his friends could see? What dark secrets unfold as he tried to look for answers?

The story starts after the prologue arc. Some tags do not apply until main story starts.
All content warnings on to give myself a bit more freedom.

Story isn't perfect but I hope I'll be able improve on it.

Lastly, the story is very very slow paced especially in the beginning. The Prologue can be skipped.
