Davi isn't your average zoomer. For starters, she's somehow become trapped in a fantasy world - and not one full of rainbows and unicorns, but one packed with all manner of terrifying monsters and deadly magic. Proper Lord of the Rings stuff. And, for reasons unknown, the humans of the Kingdom look to her for protection against the Dark Lord. To make matters worse, Davi's stuck in a time loop. So every time she fails to defeat the Dark Lord (which is every time) she has to start over. But Davi has a plan. What if instead of trying to defeat the Dark Lord...she becomes the Dark Lord instead?

Böse, sarkastisch und zum Brüllen komisch – für alle, die sich wünschen, dass die Bösen endlich eine faire Chance bekommen.

Nach ihrem 237. brutalen Tod beschließt sie allerdings, die Regeln zu ändern. Wenn der Böse jedes Mal gewinnt, dann wird eben sie der nächste Dark Lord werden. Das erste, was Davi für dieses Ziel benötigt, ist eine Horde vertrauenswürdiger finsterer Kreaturen.
