Introduction: Humanity鈥檚 end is near, crushed beneath the boots of the Precursors, ancient aliens who have returned to reclaim Earth. To fight back, mankind created the Newts: vat-grown soldiers engineered for war and discarded without a second thought.Cassie is one of them, but humanity鈥檚 survival isn鈥檛 her problem anymore.Betrayed on the battlefield and left for dead, she awakens in a world that defies everything she knows: a realm of gleaming swords, scheming nobles, and magic. Worse, it all feels unsettlingly familiar, like the otome game her traitorous squadmate once obsessed over. But Cassie isn鈥檛 the heroine or even a side character. She鈥檚 a nobody, entirely expendable as a palace maid.She doesn鈥檛 understand the rules of this dangerous new game, but she can sense danger at every turn. Nobles wage war with whispers and poison, and the cold, calculating Crown Prince whose sharp eyes miss nothing may have plans of his own. One wrong move could mean death, and Cassie refuses to become collateral damage in someone else鈥檚 game.Will she rise above her role as a pawn, or be crushed by its ruthless players?---------------------------------------------------------------------*Updates Monday-Friday!*Cover art by Maxxx*If you have the time, please leave a comment or give a review!...
