Worth the Candle by Alexander Wales (cthulhuraejepsen), cthulhuraejepsen

Summary
A teenager struggling after the death of his best friend finds himself in a fantasy world - one which seems to be an amalgamation of every Dungeons and Dragons campaign they ever played together. Now he's stuck trying to find the answers to why he's there and what this world is trying to say. The most terrifying answer might be that this world is an expression of the person he was back on Earth.
Note: Up there at the top, it says "Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings". This is very distinct from "No Archive Warnings Apply". The warning that there are no warnings is your only warning; do with it what you will.
Update schedule is, as always, whenever I feel like it (though there is a spreadsheet tracking word count). Most discussion for this work takes place on /r/rational whenever a new chapter is posted.
This story is now cross-posted on Royal Road.

Worth the Candle: A Brief Description of Aerb by Alexander Wales (cthulhuraejepsen)
Fandoms: Original Work

Summary
This document gives a brief overview of Aerb (the primary setting of Worth the Candle) and its connected planes, based on what is known to the people of Aerb at large, with occasional notes from Juniper Smith and Amaryllis Penndraig. Information should not be taken as necessarily correct, only correct within the common understanding of the situation on Aerb. Information is also, of necessity, incomplete, mostly hitting the highlights and the top 20% of information that should give you 80% of an understanding of what the world is like.
Contains mild spoilers for Worth the Candle, but nothing much beyond the first book (which ends at chapter 14). There are setting spoilers, and at least some repetition of things already in the text.
