In a world where no one can die and no wound can heal, suffering has become endless. To maintain order, a city-state employs elite agents known as Reapers to "collect" those who have lived too long. A disciplined party-a paladin, a broken healer, a ruthless dual-wielder, and a quiet wizard-carry out these mercy killings without question. But as strange memories surface and victims begin to recognize them, the truth begins to unravel. When they uncover a hidden ledger listing their own deaths years ago, they realize the horrifying truth: they are not alive, but constructs powered by the souls they harvest. As the line between duty and monstrosity collapses, the party must decide-continue feeding the system that sustains the city... or destroy it, and finally allow the world to die.
