{Round 2 open novella qualifier} Down the rabbit hole and into the underworld goes another unlucky soul. Lost, alone, and very confused, Alice joins the long line of the dead, waiting to be judged. To save her from endless boredom comes the chance of a life (death) time. Win the Queen's Tournament and earn back your place in the land of the living. Hundreds of hopefuls are chosen, from every time, place, and death imaginable, but Alice won't go down without a fight. She's determined to complete her trials, including slaying something called a Jabberwocky (which she assumes is some kind of dragon, hurray), navigating an undead forest, and beating every other competitor to the finish. It's a lot to handle alone, but Alice isn't one to give up, and isn't lonely for long. With a mysterious offer from a chatty competitor and paper thin alliance formed, Alice is ready to show the Queen of the dead and her husband that she has what it takes. But when the games begin, the heat of the battle shows Alice that maybe Hell's not that hot after all. #OpenNovellaCONTEST2019 #Godsofdeath
