Harper thought retirement meant hanging up his glaive, but when the Dungeon Lord offers him something no adventurer has ever been given—a chance to build a sanctuary from the ground up—he can't resist. Finally, a quest where success means creation, not destruction. What starts as empty land on the tenth floor of the dungeon and desperate refugees becomes something extraordinary. Olivie creates belonging with every warm smile and shared meal while Andrea challenges him at every turn.

Thorvyn Valteria would like to clarify a few misunderstandings. No, the white hair isn't a fashion statement. Yes, his tribe thinks he's cursed because of it. And no, buying a supposedly haunted house back on Earth wasn't his best decision. Now he's stuck on a primitive volcanic island where "diplomacy" means hitting someone slightly less hard with your club, while kingdoms with actual plumbing exist far across the sea.

Ross Moreland dearly wishes to spice up his dull life as a PA with something actually exciting. Like magic. His wish comes true when he gets summoned to another world. Then he gets ritually sacrificed. Luckily, the banished sun god rejects it, sending him back to life with a starlike core, one that gathers a ton of mana to explode into being. Ross can't use up the mana fast enough to prevent a fatal detonation with regular spells. What he can do is Sacrifice it all away, in return for incredible rewards. First, he just needs to join the very cult that tried to kill him.

Who would have ever guessed I would be where I am right now? Five smoking hot wives, more than a hundred priestesses of Odona with me in the new town we built, and at least a couple of babies on the way. Plus, my companions include four tribes of monster girls. Four. Full. Tribes. That’s the good news. But we’re also facing what could be the end of all we know. Invaders from another world, bent on destroying everything, have arrived. We’re not sure if the Aycrishi Sodality will help us, or if they’ll take the opportunity to try to kill us as we defend our home.

Our little startup town is doing well and we’re even gaining new allies. Local monster girl tribes are finally coming around, wanting to be friends. Some wanting to be more than friends. Small victories, though still good. But that invasion thing, that’s a kick in the nuts. We’re looking at something that could possibly destroy everyone on Tenos. To defend the world, we’re going to need to gain a lot more allies. There’s the Sodality, as much as I hate to think about it, but there may be others as well. Some of them rather mysterious, possibly even fabulous. We’ll take all we can get.

After traveling all over the western half of the world, my sexy companions and I have found the lost princess of the Isameine Dynasty and saved her from certain death. Finally. With Princess Evina in our corner, the resistance movement can gain some credibility and grow. That was the thought, anyway. None of us realized how much of a pain in the ass a gorgeous princess could be. My foxgirl wife and my hotter-than-hell orc warrior and bunny girl are the kindest women I know, but even they are ready to beat Evina senseless.

It’s been a rough couple of months, trying to keep out of the Aycrishi Sodality’s crosshairs. Sometimes it seems like we might never have a permanent home. Don’t get me wrong, wherever I am with my gorgeous foxgirl wife Ysduil feels like home. With my ferocious and ultra-hot, green-skinned warrior Glasha and my voluptuous bunny girl Amelie alongside us, I’m happier than I can ever remember being, but I want more for them. A home. A family. Safety.
