Summary
Eithan stood in a fight for his life against Yan Shoumei. He was here to lose in style.
“I say, I hope you’re prepared for a real tussle. Yes, a knuckle-scraper. Put up your—”
She threw an incredibly simple striker technique at him before he could finish. Just as he felt his heart get turned to shreds, the world froze.
Imminent Death Detected. Override Authorization 008 Ozriel: Removing Restraints and Releasing Authority.
”Ah shit,” Eithan said as his world turned white. “I forgot to turn that off.”

Summary
Awakening in a world he doesn't recognize, in a body too powerful for him to handle, with a Sword of Damocles looming over his head, a modern human must make a decision: adapt, or die.
He might live to regret his choice. A lot.

Summary
NB: I have crossposted this story to Royalroad under the title System Override.
A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden.
His mother’s insistence on his current lifepath as a corpo has done much the same.
David is a speeding ball of fire hurtling towards an unknown destination, and his mother’s death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction.
So he does what any teenager with no more fucks left to give does—he chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology that had been forced on him as a child—finding out the immense potential within him as a result.
Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we’re fucking at it?
Top of Arasaka Tower.

Summary
Modern university student from the twenty-first century is magicked to the world of Iteration 110, Cradle, and wakes up confused and disoriented in the Desolate Wilds, mere days after the Transcendent Ruins emerge from the depths. All because he dared to trust a stranger on the internet.
His chief concern now? Find Eithan. Trade information. Make himself useful. Become a god.

The main character is transported sometime in April 2021, before Bloodline came out (since that was when I began on the story). As such, he has no awareness of canon knowledge after Wintersteel. However, knowledge from after Wintersteel still plays a role in the story, characters, plot, and worldbuilding, which presents a thin line of a path that the main character has to figure out on his own.---
