When the Unity Trials first began and Neve was granted a system along with the rest of humanity, she sincerely hoped she would be among the first to die.

Death eluded her, though, so, until her time came, she reluctantly settled into the role of a healer. One day, she and a group of players ventured into the realm of the Final Challenge, a strange, otherworldly dungeon that would give humanity a ten-year resting period if they completed it. But, although death eluded her, it found all of her allies. 

Now, with no one to rely on and a burning desire for revenge, Neve must become stronger if she hopes to avenge them. 

How exactly can she do so, however, when she is only a healer?

A survival GL adventure story!

The Lone Healer

One more fight and Neve could leave this rock-covered city. She could only faintly recall what the wilderness was like. The feeling of the sun kissing her cheeks as she woke up in the mornings. It had only been two weeks or so that she'd spent here, and yet she felt like the last 24 fights she'd been through had taken at least ten years off her lifespan.

One more wave was all that stood between Neve and... well, more fighting. More fighting with the added benefit of at least some of that fighting being against people she believed deserved to die.

[... Don't celebrate just yet,] she told herself. [You know how much life likes to shit on you anytime you're halfway happy.]

She'd, of course, leveled up. This was her status going into this final battle.
