Interdimensional Pirates- known throughout the dimensions as gangs of trained thieves who travel through worlds to collect magical and valuable artifacts. But to Kota- an 18-year-old recovered criminal, who lives paycheck to paycheck, struggling to survive alone in the city, oblivious to the existence of the other dimensions and artifacts- they were the people who stole his locket, the last thing he had left of his recently deceased grandmother. She was the only person who had ever cared about him, so he was willing to get that locket back, even if it meant stealing it from his sickeningly rich half-brother's vault, becoming a wanted criminal and chasing down pirates to get it. ~ What to expect: ☠️ Slow start, picks up around chapter 5 ☠️ Male MC growth ☠️ Fantasy worlds and cultures ☠️ Mystery, adventure, action, fantasy ☠️ Mature themes of gore, torture, grief and death (trigger warning ⚠️) ☠️ Clean from mature romance themes ☠️ Detailed character descriptions, pages, and photos ☠️Morally grey characters and MC ☠️Original magical concepts, worlds, artifacts, and so on. ☠️Pirates, ships, fighting, portals, maps, treasure hunts, and so on ☠️Hand drawn digital maps ☠️World building glossaries Progress: 63k words Chapter 25 Disclaimer: ⚠️This is the first draft.
