Summary
The last thing he remembered was splitting up from Tango, and then being cornered by that Enderman and realizing he was about to die – that they were both about to die.
Instinctively, Jimmy flipped over his hand to check the heart etched onto the palm. Last he saw, it had been glowing red, an ever-present reminder of his (their) impending mortality. Now it was gray and faded, like whatever magic powered it had gone out.
That was… strange. He hadn't considered how it might change after he'd died his third death. To be fair, he hadn't thought there was anything after his third death.
Where was he?
-
Jimmy dies. And then he wakes up.
He finds himself in a strange world where his soulmate hates him, his friends are his enemies, his enemies want to be his friends - and nobody has any idea how they got there or why.
Now he has to navigate a tangled web of foreign grudges under the looming threat of the so-called 'Red King' while he makes new friends, tries to connect with this bitter, traumatized version of Tango, and do something he's never been very good at: survive.
