	I closed my eyes with a sigh and let the needle slip through limp fingers. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. They could always find someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace.
	Only...I don’t remember 'nothingness' having so many gods.

Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death.

The man's eyes were bloodshot and sharp, twisted with hatred, and illuminated by a dying candle on the other side of the room The man's hot breath flew in my face, choking me with its stench. He was wrinkled and mature, with flecks of white staining his gray hair.

"You're finally awake," he snarled, removing his hand from my shoulder.
