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

Back at the safe zone, while Ahlakan investigated the two Wolves' Tongues that Neve had brought back for her, the healer paced around the strange laboratory, pondering what the next move was.

[... I haven't heard back from Charlotte in a while. They were pretty persistent this whole time, but now... Nothing. Did something happen?]

Shaking her head, she pushed that matter aside for the time being and focused on the present situation. The 4th Floor, and how she planned to get through it.

"Neve, you don't seriously believe she's going to wait for us to make it all the way to the center of this weird town before she attacks us again, right?" Erin asked, raising a brow. "I hope you're not expecting her, a murderer, to value her own word much."

"I don't, but the System says that she won't fight us until we make it there," Neve replied. "The, ehm, rules say she won't fight us until then."

For some reason, this seemed to annoy Erin.
