Order of Mythos

Sera is a college dropout living in a small, rural town, where she works as a waitress. Her boyfriend cheated on her. She's barely able to make ends meet. The future she was once hopeful for has been crushed, leaving her with a broken spirit and the lack of will to do much of anything.  In comes Hurricane Development Labs, creators of the renowned MMORPG Order of Mythos (OoM). Sera was one of 30,000 contest winners selected to participate in the very first full-dive MMO RPG Beta that promises players the ability to experience OoM in a way that is imperceptible to real life. Launch day has come, and Sera decides to participate, knowing it will be a welcome, but temporary, escape from life. She awakens in a magical world, full of wonder and enchantment, where legends are reality.  In an unexpected turn of events, all players are teleported to a central hub for all races called the Order of Mythos by a malevolent entity. When the mysterious entity declares that there is no logout until they restore the fragmented 4 pillars and defeat Nyaxor the Unweaver with all in-game deaths being permanent, Sera quickly learns any mistakes she makes have severe consequences. The deeper players dive into The Order of Mythos, the clearer it becomes that the greatest danger may not be the game itself, but those who made it. A LitRPG isekai with a female lead, who chooses to be a conflict-avoidant healer.
