Wheel of Woe: The Demon King's Rise (OLD)

FINAL UPDATE: This will no longer be updated. I am doing an entire reboot. Not minor re-writes, but taking the characters and the story I had, and going a related but divergent path. Enough that I feel simply re-uploading here isn't possible. I also wish to leave this as-is so people can possibly see where I came from.

NOTE ON AI: Unfortunately there were some AI image generations, this was during the early "AI" boom, before I developed a strong dislike for AI image generation being published. However, with the intent of keeping everything 'as it was' - I will not be stripping those images out. That said, NO AI was EVER used in writing.

OLD UPDATE: (HIATUS Update:) With the loss of my father, I am struggling to write this world again. I do want to write it, I want to finish the story I had... but I can't motivate myself right now. I will instead move to a different project. At some point, I will return to this one. Thank you all who read this story thus far.

A world where the civilized are uncivil and new friends are found in the most unlikeliest of places. Explore  a fantasy realm driven into chaos by a top-hat wearing rabbit deity of gambling. Witness the pains of the creator as they desperately try to correct their failing RPG system.

Here you will find Sofia Rall, the daughter of the Demon King and reincarnated individual. As eventual inheritor of the title, she will become the core of the kingdom. Able to move and influence the world around her in ways only the royalty of this world can. That is, if she makes it to adulthood without going insane.

Here you will find Kina, a reincarnate who has chosen to be a halfling with giant magic, wrestling skills, and a flair for lucha libre. She searches for fame and a name, guided by an unexpected ally found in the realm's gladiator pits. Of course, she gets in over her head many times. Strength after all, is not everything.

Heroes and villains alike, scheming, acting as fate no longer binds them. All of them on course for a collision. The question then is where, when, and how?

This is my first time trying to push a story to the public. I've had elements of this story floating about in my head or in drafts. I do hope you enjoy and leave feedback if you wish. All art is owned by the author as is all works. The prologue picks up in a different direction to the main story, but I hope it does catch your interest that way.

Enjoy!Yours truly,Marilli
