Ledgers of the Foundry

A LitRPG progression fantasy where the System turns on material transformation, logistics, and supply chains—not combat. Unjustly condemned by a network that feeds on prison labor, a negotiator who has lived their life without leverage wakes in a penal foundry to discover a broken crafting class. Through precise manipulation of raw materials and the complex ledger of debts that binds the condemned, they must forge a working pathway out. As they advance, three other viewpoints—a logistics runner, a debt-collector, and an appraiser—intersect, their distinct survival strategies weaving into one fight against the corrupt monopoly that benefits from the wrongful convictions. With zero combat power, every victory demands negotiation, tactical crafting, and flipping the system’s own supply chains against it.
