Roots of Ascension

Astraeus had long disconnected from society. He didn't find purpose or passion in life, he would rather die then work an office job or serving food to barely make a living. He survived on his own in the wilderness. But then one day the system came, "System Initialized" and his world changed forever, would he evolve or be left behind? I might change some things as we go on. First time doing anything like this so I am figuring it out as I go.
