In a world where magic is king, being a regular human is dangerous. So dangerous that there are very few non-magical humans left, and they only survive with the protection of mages. Mages feel a mixture of pity and revulsion for these un-evolved humans, and call them Zombies, for, without magic, they are lifeless.

This is the story of one Zombie who had enough, and, through a twist of fate, finds the means to become stronger.
