    It might not be for everyone, but I liked it.
    Reborn after dying as a student, MC is given a do-or-die prophecy: conquer the world or die trying, that is her "fate", whatever that means. Worse, her starting position as a cute but ultimately physically weak individual in a small tribe is not the best either. Not the catchiest hook, but then again this is not a story where conflicts are that simple or predictable either.
    Expectations & tone: (very mild spoilers)
    Unlike most stories, you should not expect Viyali to just walk into the resources she needs to automatically succeed, nor win just for possessing some modern world knowledge. Divinity, but no system and no traditional magic so far (some mysticism) means this is a very realistic, down-to-earth story, without cheap thrills. Expect some memorable characters.
    Compared to the average publication, I'd say it has less fast-paced action but more emotional depth. Every success of the little monster is satisfying because it's a hard-earned win, and it also hurts when she inevitably suffers.
    The best: very solid worldbuilding, great realism, and three-dimensional characters with their own insights.
    The worst: hard to keep track of the world map and specially the incredibly long list of races and names.

    I absolutely adore our cast! Give it a shot :3
    Impressive world building, with authentic cultures and distinctly awesome pictures.
    The mix of races, their backstories and their conflicts feel authentic.
    I love our perfect lil maniacs and their escapades. Their interactions are always fun to read, and somewhat intriguing to follow

    Unique cultures and peoples, and a curious cast of characters, set in an otherworldly environs that brings to mind analogies and similarities to historical Mongolia, before the rise of the Khanate.
    But of course, given the fantastical elements of the story, though the parallels to the ascension of a Khan are there, it is in its own right, its own story, and I am quite looking forward to savoring more of the story's unique flavor.
