The Prince of the Sand

Description
“Today you have to be the strongest man of all, son. After we deliver you, you will survive, and we will die.”
When the Xalya Dungeon is about to fall under the attack of an alliance of savages, the last lord of the steppe entrusts his firstborn with a painful mission: Dashvara has to pass himself off as a member of an enemy clan, as a Shalussi, to exact revenge in a shameful way. Forced to see his people killed or enslaved, this heartbroken but still proud and humorous steppe man will soon be dragged in a surprising adventure that will shake his will and beliefs.
This story follows Dashvara as he struggles through foreign lands and discovers that the world is not only made of deserts and horses but also of “civilized” societies with strong bureaucracy and slave-based systems.
Author's note:The fantasy setting has some ancient Roman influences. Also, expect a bit of slice-of-life and comedy along Dashvara's philosophical journey. Despite the “gore” tag, violence is not the focus of this story and descriptions are not particularly gruesome.
Updates Mondays and Fridays.

- LM FranklinRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Very good story and a must read for everyone! This webnovel is very unique and is very well done. Without spoilers, this story is really good. It keeps you at the edge of your seat and keeps on bringing more and more to the table. Give the chapters a read and see how much you like it!
The grammar isn't really anything to note. Very little grammer issues and the few that there are can just be fixed overtime or after an edit. The style is good and is very interesting, a blending of different ideas and corporations in the story keeps it fresh. The stories and characters as well are good, it doesen't follow the conventional webnovel rules and changes the overall way the characters are handeled. Its a new and refreshing take on the webnovel genre and I am very excited to see where it goes. 5/5 in my book, keep up the great work!
All together, there isn’t really much else for me to say without including any spoilers. Still, for webnovel stories they are all rough, but this one in my opoinion is a must read and at least deserves a couple of chapters to be read. I was honestly shocked by the lack of reviews because this story is pretty nice! - karun kantRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5This is very good story different from most webnovels that it does not have much tropes or same repeated system/adventures guild.
The story does not put you perspective of a hero that gets stronger and stronger but story remains the same all over. We follow an angry, biased individual with flaws who gets mature as the story goes on.
