Octavia blames magical girls for the collateral damage that killed her parents and left her disabled.

Octavia's greatest wish is to go unnoticed, to swallow her rage and her desire, ignoring a hopeless love for her best friend as university parts them forever. But then a magical girl attacks another in a terrorist bombing, and Octavia finds herself arrested — both witness and suspect.

Freedom and revenge no longer seem impossible, but things worse than Nightmares are seeping through the ragged edges of reality, and Octavia knows she's a pawn in a cosmic game.

There is only one problem — it finished its first floor years ago, but it still hasn't been visited by any adventurers.

Now, with the OS having chosen them, it's time to claw back to the top — one rift, job, and monster at a time. Just as soon as there's enough drive to actually get out there. Picking up the pieces is just so tiring.
