Welcome! This wiki serves as the story bible for the Echoes from Elsewhere web novel series.

Echoes from Elsewhere is a pending series of sci-fantasy web novels, beginning with The Blessed Son. Expect space navies and power armor, with some litRPG progression elements, deities, dungeons, and drama. For themes, expect found family, with a focus on friendship, duty, and perseverance.

This story is told in first-person with the main character as the only point-of-view. I like the classic television model, so the main character Conor will be the series lead, with a few supporting roles and other recurring and guest roles.

Book 1: The Blessed Son

In a universe besieged by incomprehensible outsiders—entities that erode reality itself—ancient deities hold the line against total annihilation. The strain tears cracks in the cosmic fabric, letting horrors slip through.

To contain the breach and create opportunity, the gods forge dungeons: engineered chokepoints that funnel incursions into defensible arenas where mortals can fight, harvest power, and grow strong enough to push back.

Native species are too young, fractured, or insular to resist effectively. Centuries ago, soul-bearing elves were drawn in—organized and capable of even godhood—but their numbers fall short against the relentless tide.

Then Earth dies.

Tens of thousands of human souls are ripped across the void and thrust into this failing defense. Resilient, adaptable, forged in older fires, humanity arrives not as saviors but as desperate reinforcements. They must forge a lasting society in this crucible of divine warfare.

Or die again.

Book 2: The Lost Lady

The novel The Lost Lady is planned, but currently unwritten.
