BuyMort: 30,000 Leagues

With Arizona united under the corporate auspices of Silken Sands, Dearth Local is in retreat — and Tyson has earned himself some nice R and R.

Or so he thought.

But now, just a month after Day 1, mysterious beasts are plaguing his land. A powerful armada tears through the sea. An angry Beholder threatens his workers . . .

And a powerful tsunami has signaled the arrival of an even more powerful affiliate. A singular monster that assimilates its workers into the ever-growing hivemind that is its corporate structure, Kraken threatens to not just end Tyson and his fledgling affiliate.

It threatens to destroy Nu-Earth itself.

As Bull markets turn Bear, and as hostile agents vie to corner the local market, Tyson must find a way to not just bankrupt his rivals and hold on to his market shares . . .

He must find a way to unite the planet.

BuyMort - 30,000 Leagues

This story features an amalgamation of Amazon, Walmart, every service fee, sales algorithm, membership perk, advertising jingo, Microsoft mascot, and insane discount that you have ever experienced in your life, coupled with the madness of the multiverse, a dash of invisible hand monopolism, feudalism, straight-up cronyism and LOTS of profanity.

This MC is unlike others you may have read before. He starts as a Slacker, Pacifist, Human Pinata type who reluctantly is drawn into saving the people around him and fighting against the machine. There is fantasy violence, base-building, tons of market loot, monsters, a dungeon, affiliate and credit levels, and progression. It is single POV and has no harem elements.
