With the open ss slot, she takes a Fire mage ss.

 Book 2: ine starts practicing with her new skills, learning her new limits and capabilities. Kerberos, her fiance, hires some adventurers to retrieve ine. They kidnap her, but her Ranger teammatese to the rescue, killing most of them and arresting the rest. Shaken but undeterred, ine continues with the team, experiencing just how dangerous life is on the road for a Ranger team. From dinosaur swarms, bandits, twitchy teammates and deadly monsters, there’s never a moment’s rest for the team. They arrive in Perinthus, a town dying to multiple gues. ine shines, healing as many people as she can while slowly building a map of the victims. It soon bes clear that one is mundane, and the other is caused by a sser. The Rangers investigate, determining who the culprit is, and execute him without a trial. Leaving Perinthus, the team continues on, getting into various situations as theyplete their round. During this time, ine writes the Medical Manuscripts. After two years, they arrive back in Ariminum, the capital, where ine reunites with her parents and theye to an understanding. She is told that she’ll need to attend Ranger Academy to ‘properly’ be a Ranger, and Arthur is promoted to Sentinel Toxic during the Ranger Convocation.

 Book 3: ine attends the grueling Ranger Academy, where she meets Sentinel Night, her mentor. While she’s there, she’s brought to the front lines against the endless Formorians, in one part to directly fight them and level herself, and in another to keep an eye on Sentinel Toxic’s mass-poisoning efforts, checking that they’re not going to blow back on the soldiers. After returning from the front lines, she’s pitted in a colosseum match against her former finance Kerberos, where she blows his head off. She sses up, trading Fire magic for Radiance magic, achieving one of her lifelong dreams - flight. Upon graduation, she isn’t assigned to a team, instead being promoted to Sentinel Dawn. She goes on a failed date with Jaclyn, and learns that Night is a vampire. He teaches ine about the creation of the world, and ine goes off on her first Sentinel missions, shaking down her gear and experience. She encounters a weak gue and a pirate attack, and returns triumphant. A series of reports shows a few more years of ine’s Sentinel work.

 Book 4: The book begins with the Formorians breaching the wall, and all hands are on deck. All avable Sentinels, along with priest Demos, fly out to the front lines, where they entrench themselves deep within the horde for ast desperate strike against the Formorians. Destruction channels a massive earthquake, while Demos beseechesa god to intervene on their behalf. Both go off, each killing one of the Formorian Queens, and the Sentinels split, forming a strike team to kill thest Queen. ine and Bulwark return back to help the remaining soldiers against the horde, and they finally seed in winning their thousand year war against the Formorians. ine sses up, obtaining [The Dawn Sentinel] and building a skill to obtain in the future - Immortality. Hunting and ine are sent to make sure there are no other Formorian Queen eggs or anything like that in the hostile wastes the Formorians came from. The two delve deep into the Formorian territory, finding someone else was on the other side - dwarves. The two of them split, with Hunting returning to report their findings while ine hangs out with the dwarves. They convince ine that they’re not the people to talk with, and she should be brought to the capital and talk with someone important. She agrees, but while they’re traveling, they’re interrupted by Lun’Kat fighting with the Guardians. In order to stay alive, ine and the surviving dwarves dive down an old mine shaft, finding themselves deep underground.

 Book 5: ine and the dwarves are trapped underground, trying to survive the monsters, traps, and orcs. Ned is reced by a shapeshifter, but they finally find an underground dwarven city. ine shows off her healing prowess once again, slicing open dwarves to find out how their imnted augments work. She discovers that the dwarves have no intention of letting her go, and devises a n to escape. She flees once again to the underground, where she is chased by the inevitable shluggoth. Running away, she finds Lun’Kat’sir, where the dragon is injured. ine is sworn to heal anyone, and enters to heal Lun’Kat. She mostly resists taking any treasure, only snagging a single small, hot, red egg before fleeing back to the open air and freedom. ine gets [The Stars Never Fade], the immortality skill. She unfortunately has no idea where she is, and starts heading north when she bumps into a trio of elves. They’re heading in roughly the same direction, and ine joins up, for safety and guidance. They fight a hydra and emerge victorious.

 Book 6: After pissing off some trolls, they encounter a gnoll, who ine makes young again with [The Stars Never Fade], practicing her immortality skill for the first time and meeting White Dove. They travel further to Ochi, a city infested with Shimagu who can hijack other people’s bodies. After struggling with her ethics and morals, ine heals the people infested with Shimagu, killing the intelligent bodyjackers in the process. The action devastates her though, and being close enough to Remus, she travels the rest of the distance alone. She finds herself in a city, with a Ranger team nearby - home atst! The book ends with the egg hatching in a ze of fire, Auri emerging from the mes.

 Book 7: ine struggles with looking after a newborn Auri, eventually realizing that she’s one of the rarest and most legendary creatures to ever exist - a phoenix. The two make their way back home, where they find Artemis has been sold into very and Julius is missing. After freeing Artemis, ine reports back to the Sentinels, where she finally hits the level 512 milestone and unlocks her third ss. ine has a tearful reunion with her friends and family. News of her ability to make people young again makes its way to the Emperor, who pressures ine into making him young again, no matter the price. ine negotiates - poorly - women getting equal treatment in the eyes of thew. Augustus agrees, and ine has a triumphant parade through the city, where Augustus announces both the change, and a war against the Shimagu. News reaches the Sentinels about where Julius went missing - a fairy ring - and ine, along with Artemis, Auri, and Autumn - enter the ring, intent on retrieving him. They seed, but fae trickery and divine intervention mean they leave the fairy ring tens of thousands of years after when they entered.

 Book 8: ine and the rest are utterly lost in this new world. They don’t speak thenguage, and half of what they do is illegal. They’re fortunate to meet Iona, a Valkyrie, who has a blessing to speak anynguage. She helps orient them to the world, and ine decides it’d be best for her to attend the School of Sorcery and Spellcraft, to gain as much knowledge and information that she can. Julius and Artemis decide they want to try joining the Hunter’s Guild, and Autumn - now called Amber, after she sold her name to the fae for power - wants to kickstart her dream of bing disgustingly rich. ine attends the School, where she learns as much as she can, and takes a ‘practice’ third ss, Biomancy, in order to make modifications to herself that’llst her entire lifetime - eternity. It also gives her a good view on the remaining sses she has. She also starts to learn the art of Wizardry, etching runes and glyphs to create any magical effect - at a steep knowledge, time, and efficiency cost. Iona and ine fall for each other and start dating, and the book ends with ine performing a massive biomancy operation on herself and Iona, permanently improving their bodies. The book ends with ine taking her third ss ‘for real’ - [Bookwyrm].

 Book 9: ine and Iona are continuing their School adventures. ine is a member of the School’sbat team, and the diator Gauntlet is the main event. ine attends along with Iona, who discovers that Rond has effectively disbanded the remnants of the Valkyrie order. Iona enters the tournament, intent on extracting a pound of flesh from the nobility, while ine struggles to win the event for the School’s glory. They’ve given her five years of free tuition, the least she can do is return with a trophy for them. Both are victorious, and return to the School. ine’s body is on a shorter lifespan than usual with her dramatic biomancy modifications, and chooses to get cursed sooner rather thanter by White Dove, because at the School she can research mitigation tactics. She’s cursed, and graduation is around the corner. She graduates in multiple tracks, and gets recognized as the founder of modern medicine due to her efforts with the Medical Manuscripts back in the day… regardless of how many other people contributed over the eons to the book. After graduating, Iona and ine fly off together to Exterreri, hoping to find Night.

 The Magic System Refresher

 This is a simple refresher, covering the major points without getting bogged down in the minor details. Beneath the Dragoneye Moons is a litRPG magic system. There are 8 stats - Strength, Dexterity, Speed, Vitality, Mana, Mana Regeneration, Magic Power, and Magic Control. Most people have two sses, with people over level 512 unlocking a third ss. Each ss has an element. The eight basic elements are Light, Dark, Water, Fire, Wind, Earth, Nature and Metal. Eachbination of two of the basic elements creates an advanced element - Light and Dark make Celestial, for example. Each element has things it can and can’t do, along with the ss. People get experience for doing things their ss wants to do. A [Lumberjack] gets experience for cutting wood, and not very much for killing a monster. A [Knight] gets a lot of experience for killing a monster, and very little for chopping wood. Leveling up a ss gives stats, and raises the cap on skills for that ss. Each ss can have up to 8 skills, and there are 8 general skill slots.
