All life on Earth has been stolen away by The System and transported to another world at the behest of a distant galactic empire that feared humanity's potential. Ben was a normal, slightly above-average man who had been about to go on his first real vacation. Now he must contend with danger and mystery in a world of monsters, magic, and treasure — armed with nothing but his wits and the special item given to him by The System. Welcome to The World.

All life on Earth has been stolen away by The System and transported to another world at the behest of a distant galactic empire that feared humanity's potential. Ben was a normal, slightly above-average man who had been about to go on his first real vacation. Now he must contend with danger and mystery in a world of monsters, magic, and treasure — armed with nothing but his wits and the special item given to him by The System. Welcome to The World.

Stranded in the Overcavern Forest with Vivi, an Aeon Slug, Ben must fight his way through this treacherous ancient environment to reunite with old friends and seek safety in the great city of Solas. He will contend with some of the worst threats The World has to offer — and he'll do it without pants.

Having barely escaped the Overcavern Forest with his life, Ben is ready for peace and safety in the city of Solas. Unfortunately, he won't find it there — not with the rare body of Betsy the Purebeast sealed in his Utility Pocket, drawing interest from all the wrong kinds of powerful people. With Vivi accused once again of old crimes and a sham trial looming, Ben must learn how the criminal justice system works in The World. Also: time loops. He learns about those too.
