After quitting her job as a therapist, Tess's life became pretty slow. A tad boring, even. It thus came as no small shock to her when she was chosen by a god. Suddenly thrust into a new world where magic, monsters, and character levels are par for the course, Tess will find that simply surviving can be a challenge. It doesn't help that dark forces are stirring, she's woefully underpowered, and spiders keep trying to claw her face off.

Broken. Trapped. Surrounded by vicious monsters. After a failed dungeon run leaves Tess nearly comatose, her only hope is to travel far away to seek healing. But when a teleportation ritual goes awry, she'll quickly find herself stuck in a strange and chaotic land, penned in by treacherous traps and brutal beasts. Accompanied by only two of her closest friends, Tess will have to rise to the occasion and fight her way out. All the while, with her mind still in tatters, as she finds a path to freedom, she'll also have to find herself.
