Jim never expected much from life.
At twenty-four, he’s drifting through community college, working a dead-end gas station job, and spending most of his free time gaming. He has no real plan for the future.
Then a car crashes into his store.
Jim wakes in the hospital paralyzed from the neck down, trapped in a body he can no longer control. The life he used to complain about suddenly seems perfect.
Then he’s offered another chance.
Not a cure.
A new world.
A world of levels, skills, monsters, and death, where power can be earned and survival depends on becoming stronger.
Jim accepts.
But this isn’t a game. There are no resets, no walkthroughs, and no second chances.
And something inside Jim is beginning to awaken.
Something hungry.
Something made to hunt.
