Andy wanted a quiet life—just his trailer, the Sonoran desert, and a job that didn’t ask much of him. Instead, he got a front-row seat to Tucson’s collapse. Magic rewrote the rules. Monsters stalked the streets. People mutated—or died. He didn’t plan to be a hero. But when the screaming started, Andy grabbed a broken broomstick and did what he does best: survive. Now he’s got more than his own skin to worry about—kids looking to him for protection, neighbors turning to him for leadership, and a trailer park slowly transforming into a fortress. The System’s leveling him up—but not fast enough.

The System is pushing him forward—new levels, new powers, new enchantments he barely understands—but every step up feels like another way to fall further. And the System isn't done complicating things. There are dungeons beneath the desert, with monsters that don't care how high his level is. A storm is coming that will remake the mesa into something unrecognizable.

Growing up, she was the girl down the street. Even then, I knew she was different. She was tough, rough, and had the strength to stop a speeding car with her bare hands. We were as thick as thieves, sharing every adventure. Then one day she revealed a secret. She wasn't from Earth. She was from a distant place called the Arcadia Multiverse. Her people lived under the rule of a god-like entity known as the System. That System had its gaze fixed on Earth. And it was only a matter of time before it came for us.

The end of the world brought with it the System, and the end of life as I knew it.

Before us stand four hostile factions, and some of them are already plotting against me and my people. Worse, they draw on the power of the Chaos Gods to do I know not what. But I am not alone. My allies on Themyscira have been of great help to me already, and I have my eye on one in particular. Cyra and I have grown close, and I hope to grow closer still.
