For Sam Pross, descending into the shifting, subterranean hellscape known as The Depths isn’t about glory, it’s a cold, hard mathematical resource equation. As a pragmatic freelance delver, her objective is simple: get in, retrieve a specific guild satchel from Floor Three, and get paid. Armed with twin daggers and her lethal Backstab skill, she knows how to survive the dungeon's unyielding system, The Protocol.
But the Protocol has a dark side.
When Sam rescues a panicked wizard and stumbles upon a terrifying anomaly, a lone goblin that cries, speaks human words, and bears the eyes of a lost friend, the rules change. Defying the system's warnings, Sam takes the creature along, only to discover a horrifying secret: The Depths doesn't just recycle the dead. It binds the consciousness of fallen delvers into monster frames, slowly erasing their humanity to feed the dungeon's baseline coding. With her companion’s sanity fracturing on a ticking clock and The Warden, the Protocol's absolute, maximum-resistance skeletal enforcer, breathing down their necks, escape seems impossible. To save her crew, Sam must do the unthinkable. She must find a loophole, defy the system's logic, and choose to break the rules.
