Guardian Knot

After college, Troy Ericsen didn't have much planned. He had saved up through investing, he had paid off his loans. Outside of buying his uncle's old house, there was little he had set in stone. But when he finds a hidden compartment in the desk downstairs, he finds a new world, monstrous beasts, and... orphan adventurers?

With so little known about this world of Mugarde, Troy finds himself taking care of the young elven boy, Alcydes. While he works to support the kid on multiple levels, he has several questions that need answering: Why was there a magical artifact in his uncle's house? What pushed Alcydes to be alone? How much does his family know about the other world? And why are the gods interested in Alcydes and Troy, when he doesn't even know about them?
