Thrown into the world with nary a leg to stand on, she surmounts increasingly difficult odds, battles with such heavy topics as "Is it really safe to eat this?" and "How am I supposed to slay a wyvern!?", and contemplates the existential question of whether this shade of pink makes her slime look fat.

John, a 37-year-old widower, is feeling lost. Grief, regret, and the weight of the past push him to long for something new. When he discovers a way to travel between worlds through dimensional Gates, he takes it. His class has the potential to be overpowered, but he's not in it for fights, fame, or power.

This is a slower-paced LitRPG written in a semi-journal style, focusing as much on the inner journey as the outer one.
