Description

In the year 2018 life is quite easy for many people. However peaceful times like these are bound to change and stop someday. This year is the year where the peaceful times stop and the struggle for survival begins. With the reawakening of Gaia, the spirit of the planet earth, mana also appeared again, as well as the gods. The gods that now slowly wake up from their slumber decided to help the humans so that they have at least a chance to survive the monster and mana beasts that are bound to appear with mana. They give them the chance to change themselves, strengthen themselves and acquire power so that they can survive. However quickly do the humans have to realize, that they are no longer the top predator on earth even with their newly acquired enhancements and powers.

Old, legendary, sometimes even mythological creatures reappear. Demons only spoken in old legends and folklore can visit the mortal realm again and hunt humans to their will. And humans are no longer the only sentient species on earth. Those who have the diluted blood of old, of the other races like the dwarves, elves, beastmen and all those who are in between slowly reawaken their heritage.

They now have to either fight in order to gain control of what was once theirs or cooperate. Let's see what a "normal" person, a normal 16-year old can do in such a world.

    this story has what i was looking for, the 'Gender bender' tag is well placed since it expand a lot into it unlike some other story that place the tag and write a normal story about a female mc without careing that the mc was a male before chapter 1.
    the non human protagonist is also well written, i like the fact that the mc does not get overpower since the start and he also has to deal with the bad sides from change.
    the grammar side looks nice as well, i'm no expert but i find it easy to read and i felt
    absorbed into the story.
    like i said i hope the author continue to write this story even if not for theraupetic reasons anymore

    Gaia's will is a interesting little Gender Bender story of my favorite kind: throw a person not only into an entirely new sex, but also species, then screw with their world-view. Or in this case just their world. While so far there is not really a 'plot' yet as such (hence the 3 star story score, can't reveiw what hasn't started) the characters are interesting and feel like actual people.
    There are a few spelling, and grammer mistakes, plus the story does like using referances a bit much but it is far from a deal breaker.
