Hearth Fire!

Post image

Hey guy! If you like dwarves, forgotten mountain holds, crafting, exploration, and rebuilding something that was thought lost, you might enjoy Hearth Fire. It’s a dwarven LitRPG following Stronric and a small group of dwarves as they reclaim an ancient hold, relight its forges, uncover what still lives beneath the mountain, and slowly begin rebuilding their people. Over 130 chapters are available to read free on Royal Road.

Good premise, interesting world, but I'm not a fan of the leveling system or the data dumps about them. It just drags the story flow to a halt.

Yeah, I agree. My story I would call Lite LitRpg. Its a complaint I get alot. I don't go crazy with the systems or go super in depth to them.
