Synopsis
of Roll Over and Die
Flum
Apricot was never meant to be a hero. Despite having zero stats in every
department and a power she can't even use, she somehow ends up inducted into a
group of heroes. But Flum's life hits rock bottom when the group's renowned
sage, Jean Inteige, decides the useless girl is a liability and arranges for
her to be sold into slavery. Thrown to monsters to be devoured for her new
master's amusement, Flum makes a desperate choice: to reach for a cursed
weapon... and something new awakens within her. A dark tale of one woman's
bloody quest to reclaim her life.
