Description: [edit] [history]

"Eat the bug first. Then we'll talk."

Everyone is deathly afraid of insects. When giant insects known as the Swarm fell from the stars to invade the world, they brought with them untold carnage and disaster, terraforming the world to suit their adaptations. A hundred years later, the surface world is nigh-inhospitable to humans. The Swarm rules, and anyone who tries to defy them ends up crushed underfoot.

Fourteen-year-old Dahlia has never seen the sun. She lives in an underground town far from giant insects, and she wants nothing to do with them. She fears them more than anything else and has no interest in them being alive. If she could just spend every day coasting through her fighting classes and grow up to be the best insect gear maker in town, she would be more than happy enough… that is, until one night a cocoon falls through the ceiling and an army of giant insects flood into the town.

Afraid or not, weak or strong, this is kill or be killed. Eat or be eaten. To survive the Swarm, she must make do with what she has—and unmake everything standing in her way.

Expect:

- A dark system apocalypse where power comes from consuming insects and wearing their skin as magical equipment. The main character only chooses the latter for special reasons.

- A wide array of strange insect mutations and abilities all based on real life insects. Come for the fights, stay for the insect trivia.

- A slow progression fantasy where growth is physically and mentally painful, but consistent and rewarding. Over the Volumes, Dahlia will become very, very powerful.

Warning: contains gore, trauma, corpse-crafting, physical deformation, and lots of creepy crawlies. Dahlia gets the system very early on in chapter one, but the story is more character centric and LitRPG-lite in Volume One, so less numbers, more mystery. The full system and the wider world will play a bigger role in Volume Two.

New chapter every Wednesday and Friday!
