Daniel Lawson, a blue-collar maintenance technician who has been whisked away to another world known as Zenkon by strange divine magic, has since had quite the adventure. His luck wasn't the greatest, though, as he arrived on Zenkon with no magic power of his own whatsoever in a world where every living thing contains some mana. He was banished from Mornistae, held off a dragon attack using the element of surprise and a carefully forged rifle, defeated the Feral Feldrok to take control of the immensely powerful magic fortress known as the Citadel. After conquering the Citadel, he used it to defeat the Devourer, a feldrok whose mana absorption ability went haywire and turned it into a titanic, world-devouring monster. During these feats, he met and befriended many strange and powerful beings, far stronger than he is in magic, but who come together for the shared goal of a better future on the war-split world of Zenkon. All has not been as it seems, however, as Daniel and his companions have founded the Fievegal as their own fledgling Empire, only to meet resistance from seemingly all sides as they try to establish themselves as a stronghold of neutrality. Now, the Fievegal must continue to uncover their enemies and defeat monsters that threaten their fledgling Empire while protecting what they hold dear. ~A/N: This is the second part of my mainline story "Trapped In Another World With No Magic", starting from Chapter 186. If you are new to my series, I do encourage you to start the story from the beginning. I didn't expect there to be a limit on chapters, so I didn't plan around splitting the stories in a sensible way for the story to be picked up in the middle as it is now. I may look into adjusting it in the future, but for now, I hope you will enjoy the story!

On the run, Willow stumbles into a bandit ambush and is rescued by a lone traveler. He reluctantly agrees to help protect her on the forest paths if she can guide him to his destination. His distant demeanor suddenly changes after she returns his cloak, not realizing he is a selkie, nor aware that if someone returns a selkie's cloak, the selkie falls in love with them. As they travel, she discovers that he's everything she ever wanted in a husband, but learns that it comes at a cost - and that cost is his freedom. Note: If you're looking for a typical lore-based selkie story, I'm afraid you won't find it here. But if you're looking for a hopeful selkie and an uninformed human, then you have come to the right place. ONC 2025 awards: Ambassador's pick award, Round 2 winner, and Short List award. Based on the Open Novella Contest prompt #110: "20 days of freedom." Cover was made with incredible patience by: SayWatt74 (Cardin Watts)
