vox machina origins graphic novel

The century long war had just ended and humanity had managed to get their hands on alien technology, sending them years ahead in terms of technological advancement, fulfilling their hope of finding life outside their planet and their desire to dominate these extra-terrestrial existences. The effects of their technological advancement alone wasn’t capable of giving this result. The appearance of mutations which granted supernatural powers among humans was another boon giving them the chance to act out their darkest desires. Their joy took a dark turn when it was revealed that they were nothing more than livestock to the mysterious race, Xillthars, who cultivated them to that level. Like fattening livestock. Shortly before this dark turn of times was a forbidden creature, Kieran who had been born into the lowest levels of a society created by the greed of humans. To him, life had always been hard, but things got worse after the arrival of the Xillthars as he found himself on a trail of shocking discoveries about himself and the world around him.

DISCLAIMER: This story is written in the present tense, first-person, and in multiple POV's. Therefore, it might be jarring—moreover, confusing at the beginning and in some parts of the story—however, as the first Volume is a setup book, it's intentional. The whole series will be—if you push through it—probably one of your favorite book series.  I was a fool to believe that I, a mere red, could play God. A fool to think I could change the world, to balance evil with good. A fool to trust that those dearest to me would always remain by my side. In this world, where blood reigns supreme, a single misstep is all it takes to lose oneself. Ren, my dear little brother, I hope you still watch over me, even though I am unworthy. I’ll be with you soon—just wait a little longer. If you're looking for a story with Lotm-like Power System and Red Rising-like Hierarchy, search no further.

So, when she was struck by lightning and became Li Wu Ya, a daughter of a humble military household in ancient borderlands, she adapted well and quickly assimilated into the ways of the ancient people.

Shelter: Pavilions, towers, and elegant corridors, surrounded by serene bamboo forests and the melodies of birds, where one's home becomes a scenic spot, but not excessive. Transportation: Lavish carriages and luxury horses are a must, but not excessive. With an endless supply of money, no need to work, a loving husband, and children to warm her bed, life... perfect! Life is not easy, so one must love oneself dearly. Shi Lu is determined to experience everything she hasn't encountered or enjoyed in the end times. Unfortunately, reality dealt her a harsh blow. The borderlands are bitterly cold, plagued by years of war, and even getting enough food to eat is difficult, with constant threats to her life. Fine, let's roll up our sleeves and strive!

In life's triumphs, one should indulge. Be a shallow yet happy commoner.
