Sent back to the start of the apocalypse via time regression, Sonya awakens a mythic, limitless-potential ability and must find and train the heroes who failed last time before Liberty and the other future Heralds burn the world again. A top Royal Road time-regression LitRPG with over 6k followers and millions of views, now published as the Broker trilogy (Deus Ex Machina, Fog of War, Standard of Glory).
