Completed Fanfiction Recommendations

[classicdrogn]

Dark Star Rising is another Worm alt-power fic, non-crossover this time. Most of what I said about the tone of The Limits of Power applies here as well, with the added note that the challenge factor feels higher most of the time, and that it manages to pull off that rarest of feats, a Snoozefest Nine arc that is not just a comic relief curb-stomp and also not a grimderp slog that makes me drop the story. It also does an actual battle against Scion rather than trick-boss neutralizing him or running out of juice before even getting there, the first such I can remember seeing in the fandom.

285k words in 77 posts. There were more epilogues mentioned as a possibility, but that was 2024 so it's probably safe to assume that the story really is as complete as the title tag says it is.
