How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying

2024

Dark Lord Davi

BETWEEN THE COVERS

The story

Davi has tried to save humanity from the Dark Lord more times than she can bear. Each attempt ends in defeat, death, and another return to the same world. If heroic effort cannot change the outcome, she decides to test the opposite approach: become the Dark Lord herself. Building power from the other side of the conflict means reassessing the people and creatures she has repeatedly been taught to oppose. Her familiarity with the loop offers advantages, but it does not make leadership or its consequences simple. This irreverent fantasy follows a bisexual antiheroine abandoning the assigned role of savior and discovering what happens when survival becomes a campaign to take control of the story.
