Rune Breaker is a WebSerialNovel by LandonPorter, the guy who also writer ''Literature/TheDescendants''.
Where The Descendants is an episodic Superhero series, Rune Breaker is a Fantasy novel that follows a single story; that of Taylin, an escaped slave who stumbles upon the resting place of Ru Brakar (The titular Rune Breaker), an evil wizard who is magically compelled to serve whoever finds him, much like a genie.
After accidentally wishing to sleep a thousand years, Taylin wakes up a the future where all of her slave masters are dead, but with one major problem: Ru is still bound to her service and she has no intention to act like his master.
She tries to find her place in the world with Ru in tow, meeting up with Kaiel, a sage (loreman in-series) in training, and a clan of halflings that eventually take her in. But little does she know that someone else is after Ru for themselves...
The series is posted [[http://www.descendantsserial.paradoxomni.net/rune-breaker/ here]].
The first book. ''A Girl and Her Monster'' is available from Amazon [[http://amzn.to/RYm8EM here]] and the second, ''Lighter Days, Darker Nights'' is on sale [[http://amzn.to/TYVAXK here]].
This work features the following tropes:
AllThereInTheManual : The setting, Ere was the author's DungeonsAndDragons Campaign Setting and there used to be a website for it detailing all sorts of world information. He also has several short stories set in the same world that explain a few things about Loremen and hailene.
AmplifierArtifact : Dottir Logi, the Eastern Brand is one for fire spells.
BenevolentGenie : The link forces Ru to be this. It doesn't stop him from being a JerkAss in other ways.
BFS : Taylin seems to have been bred to wield these. Issacor later teachers her to dual-wield them!
BigBad : Immurai the Masked, an ancient demon who wants to take control of Ru for himself.
BioAugmentation : Kaydan demons. Most of them started out humans but were custom upgraded to serve the Threefold Moon.
CatapultNightmare : Twice, Ru (who sleeps as a cat (ItMakesSenseInContext)), awakens in such a frenzy that he changes shape instantly.
ColdSleepColdFuture : Averted. Taylin accidentally causes Ru to put her to sleep for hundreds of years. She is overjoyed at the world she finds when she wakes up.
CoolSword : They're everywhere:
* Dottir Logi, the Eastern Brand is a FlamingSword that, when activated, surrounds itself in a double helix of flame, spits sparks when it touches metal, and channels fire spells.
* Novacula Kuponya is a HealingShiv that saps the energy of anyone hit with it and can unleash a MacrossMissileMassacre .
* Faith-Be-Forgiven is a BFS that can let its wielder fight on even when they should have died.
