[Western fantasy, farming, multiple heroines, kingdom building]
In the Godforsaken Lands, the Blacksoil Wasteland has seen three lords die violent deaths, and a beast tide is certain to arrive in winter.
The fallen prince Lane arrives with a black ring, only to discover that the land itself has a heartbeat:
Poisoned well → Well of Abundance, moldy wheat seeds → Silverleaf Potato Granary, crumbling wooden walls → Mana-Powered City Defense, dwarven workshop → Dragonblood Furnace, exile camp → Holy City of All Races!
Food output increases by 300%, weapons production multiplies tenfold, and the people's loyalty is forged into a sword of royal power.
Orcs come to steal the grain, elves come to assassinate him, and the Church comes to put him on trial. He plants his sword before the throne:
“From this day on, the crown will kneel to no god!”
