Veltherra: Sylvan in the Unknown World
Sylvan Cruz is a cautious, self-preserving man who only wants a quiet, comfortable life.
After surviving countless close calls in his own world, he believes he understands one rule above all else: stay out of trouble, or die.
That rule is shattered when an accident leaves him stranded in Veltherra, a world of magic, swords, and unforgiving consequences.
Unable to understand the language, viewed with suspicion by armed guards, and carrying strange objects from another world, Sylvan quickly realizes this is no fantasy meant for heroes. One wrong word, one wrong move, and his life could end without warning.
With no overwhelming power and only basic elemental magic at his disposal, Sylvan survives through caution, intelligence, and escape rather than confrontation. Though cowardly by nature and selfish in his thoughts, he often finds himself helping others despite himself, drawn by pride, curiosity, or simple human decency.
As he learns to draw upon the world’s natural mana and adapts to its harsh reality, Sylvan has no desire to change Veltherra. He only wants to live peacefully within it.
Unbeknownst to him, even a fleeting presence can leave a lasting mark.
In a world that does not revolve around him, Sylvan’s story is not about becoming a hero, but about surviving long enough to remain human.
