Pretending To Be God

George Sterling, once a successful lawyer turned actor, then turned magician, finds himself in dire straits as the rise of Artificial Intelligence takes away all his livelihoods. As he nears the end of his life, a family heirloom, a mysterious ring passed down from his father, transports him to an unfamiliar world seemingly distant from reality. Upon awakening, George discovers a newfound opportunity that awaits him. Initially tasked with portraying the Wizard of Oz to survive, he delves into this new role. However, as he embraces his new identity, an even greater challenge lies ahead: he must venture into the realm of pretending to be a god. This book uses characters and elements from L. Frank Baum's original Oz series which has entered the public domain and allows me to use them in my original book as long as I do not use the characters and elements from the adaptations that haven't entered the public domain.

Rose Tower

"This place doesn't seem as welcoming as I first thought." The Wizard responded, hearing about the Munchkin and their kingdom and how friendly they are, It was fair for them to expect that their entrance would be a bit more… friendly just as they were. 

But here the three men were, standing in front of what they see as more of a haunted bridge taken over by nature, the algae covering the sides of the bridge while the tree covering the sun over it and growing nothing but a bunch of bug-filled leaves, and some of them too big to be considered non-threatening.

They slowly walked towards it, making sure that there was no deadly amount of desert sand. 

Captain Roland led the way, withdrawing his sword, and started slicing the trees in front of them slowly and carefully to not dull his weapon too much.
