Hearthfall: A Cozy Base-Building LitRPG (Soft GameLit)

The sky is falling. So is Candlewick.Burned-out hospice nurse Talia Brooks has spent her whole life making other people's endings gentle. When a dying floating island pulls her across worlds, it offers one last impossible job: inherit a ruined inn, rekindle a magic that runs on belonging, and hold a whole town above the storm before the isle drops into the Undertow.Hearthcraft cannot be bought, mined, or forced. It is made of shared bread, mended roofs, kept promises, and people who choose to stay. With a sardonic old lighthouse keeper, a prickly forager, a wandering tinker, a retired baker, and a child who has nowhere else to go, Talia builds more than shelter. She builds a home.But the island's crystal heart is not broken. It is grieving. And healing it may cost Talia the only way back.Hearthfall is a warm, wholesome cozy fantasy and soft Game LitRPG full of base-building, found family, gentle progression, and slow-burn hope.A place that stays. She found one. She made one. Both.
