This is an absurd post-apocalyptic fantasy idea about Alexander February who is a young adventurer and a realist who took up the job out of survival in the world of Shattered Earth--a post-apocalyptic world where the earth's landmasses have been transformed into floating islands. Alexander will have adventures, not only on Shattered Earth, but in other dimensions, and will explore the universe of Alexander while dealing with situations like a entropic wizard with a god complex, a dark elf uprising within the wastelands, the corruption of Shattered Earth's royal family, and dealing with the bloated bureaucracy of the adventurer's guild while putting up with semi-obnoxious roommates.

The story tends to deconstruct the fantasy and epic poem genre by using moral relativism and bureaucracy, featuring that most of the heroes in the story are not motivated by virtue or heroes, but by wealth, survival, power, vengeance, etc. while picturing a majority of society bounded in red tape as the guild system is active and regulated.
