Matthew50818
When a modern-day special forces operator breaches a door in Syria, he's ripped from his world and thrust into a realm of magic, myth, and forgotten ruins. Alone but armed with every tool and tactic from Earth, he enters SEAR mode, Survive, Evade, Assess, Recover, and begins reshaping the world around him.
After rescuing a fellow soldier and encountering a strange girl who seems to know more than she should, he begins forging an empire built on discipline, warfare, and technology. Locals see him as a god. He lets them.
As his influence grows, so does the flame: a doctrine of rebirth through fire, a militarized civilization rising from stone and steel. With portals to other worlds, divine artifacts, and war on all sides, he must decide what kind of legend he'll become.
Because in this world, fire doesn't just burn
It remakes everything it touches.
