After so long in this world, their human bodies are dying on the other side. If they don't find a way home soon, they may have nothing to go back to.With time running out in two worlds, Tina and James face a horrible choice: do they spend their final days looking for a way to get back to their old bodies, or join the NPCs to fight for their new ones. But just when things look impossible, James learns a secret that might change everything. Only one catch: to pull it off, they're going to have to fight one raid boss no one, not even Tina, has ever beaten.The Once King.
