Ten Thousand Tragedies

Death is the greatest teacher, and 721 has a lot of learning to do.

The Martial Arts Alliance stands at the precipice of defeat as war threatens to consume the world. Its sects, its great families - all are rotten at the core.

As one of the slave soldiers of the Red Dawn Sect, 721 is not allowed to have a name, feelings, or thoughts. His death is not a tragedy, only a statistic. He's expendable cannon fodder, if that.

But death isn't the end for him. Every time he dies, he wakes up again 24 hours before his death. Even though he only has a vague memory of who he once was, he will rise to the highest peaks.

Freedom lies at the end of a long road, and 721's road is paved with his bones.

This is a wuxia / murim setting with a focus on close combat and a protagonist who makes horrible mistakes and learns from them. There'll be darkness, especially in the first book, but there'll be light at the end of the tunnel. And there'll be dying. A lot of dying, in honestly pretty awful ways. Black comedy levels of dying horribly, just so you’re warned.

Updates once a day for the first two weeks. Afterwards, updates intended for Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
