"I fear that my name has become shockingly well known throughout the world. I always understood that an accomplishment such as mine would be known throughout history. I always worried that others would think that to be my motivation for departing from my home.
I did not set out on the Path of Mastery for glory. I left so nobody else had to. I left to save my people from doom. Though some respect me for simply learning the magic of every tribe, I believe there are others who find themselves annoyed by the youth who accomplished the impossible, simply to gain power.
This account is for those people most of all."
-Gideon, of Drukar
Chronicles of the Ancient Magic is a series of books set in the same world at different eras.
The main story inside this world is of Gideon, who has his own series known as The Woodland Archer, and will likely be the only multi-book story in this world, on account of his being the most prominent.
This is the most recent version of my very first story idea, and it has evolved a lot through the years, into a story of a young adventurer departing from his home to travel and learn the 8 other magics of the world alongside his childhood friend.
Eventually, Chronicles of the Ancient Magic will include a Steampunk, Sci-fi, Modern, and even a story at the Dawn of History.
How does the idea sound?
