Donna is a forever teen living in a cave. She wears clothes made from leather and weaved plants. Her home features a bed made from straw with a blanket made from plants, a hanging pole made of sticks and cordages to hang her clothes, a tree log serving as the table with wooden bowls on top, a fiber mat where she sits down and craft something useful, and a fire ring outside of the cave.
Donna lives in a dangerous world where animals threaten her life, which are commonly wolves. But Donna has a way of fending away dangerous beasts. She makes use of pitfall traps covered with leaves and she has a bow and makeshift stone arrows she uses to shoot.
Donna doesn't know how to start a fire the old fashioned way but she can cast Flame Puff to summon a flicker of flame to light up tinders. She can conjure fire.
Donna mainly eats cherries and meat. The only way she can cook is by roasting food above the flames of the campfire. She got used to mediocre meals like these everyday.
Every night before going to sleep, Donna is checking a floating blue screen. It contains her information. She adjusts it the way it favors her magic and dexterity.
Donna thinks about how she got here.
First, she was going home from a stressful work. She was minding her business when someone drunk threatened her. She was gonna ignore him when suddenly the drunk grabbed her wrist. In an attempt of freeing herself, Donna got pushed off over the railings and fell head first to the rock before falling to the ocean. It was dark and the streets were not busy so no one noticed that she fell. She helplessly sank.
Second, after opening her eyes, a goddess greeted her. The god introduced themself.
"Greetings young lady, I am Priscillia. I am the goddess of dreams," said Priscillia.
The goddess explained that the other god who is supposed to be in charge left for lunch break, leaving her to act as an substitute. Donna felt sympathetic for a moment but she asked what will happen to her.
The goddess said that there is nothing to worry. Donna will simply reborn as a baby from another world. She will make sure that the process is smooth.
Priscillia scrambled bunch of notes and then she started her questioning. She asked, "What name do you want to have in your next life?"
A simple yet strange question. Donna replied, "Donna is fine. I'll go by my name if that is ok.
Priscillia said it won't be a problem. She writes her name on the piece of paper and moves on to the next question. "What kind of life do you want to have?"
Donna seems to be unsure what she wanted to have. She thinks about it. She mumbled, "Something exciting, like some adventure would be fun..."
Priscilla heard her mumbling and happily write that down. Donna tried to speak but Priscilla already started her next question. "Is there anymore that you want in your life?"
Donna thought about it deeply. She wished to be like a superhero from a cartoon that she watched as a kid. A superhero that controls fire. And there were so many things that she wanted to have. She mumbled about being young.
As usual, Priscilla heard that with her mind reading. She wrote that and realized that she ran out of space. She said that she was finished writing and told Donna will be ready to be reborn. Donna was skeptical but accepted the outcome.
Priscilla wiped her tears and said she can fun conversing with Donna. She bid farewell and wished for Donna's happiness. Donna nodded and said her thanks as she disappeared like bubbles.
The goddess of rebirth, Agatha, came back and saw what had been done. She angrily snatched the paper that Priscilla was holding which upset Priscilla.
She reads it and with fury, she shouted, "What have you done you stupid?!"
Priscilla tried to asked what had gone wrong and Agatha pointed out that what she was holding was not the sheets of rebirth, she was holding sheets of reincarnation. After further reading, Agatha spotted how lousy Priscilla wrote the information. Most of the answers were just technicalities.
Agatha got angry at Priscilla and started to teach her a lesson. Priscilla panicked and fled to safety.
Meanwhile, Donna finally arrived in the new world. Donna find something was wrong. She returned to her teen years, not as a baby. And she clearly remembered her past life and her conversation with Priscilla. Donna touched her face and pinched it. It happened.
Donna reincarnated to a dangerous wild world. She experienced many hardship finding shelter, food, and water. She encountered many beasts that wanted to eat her. Donna had it when she learned how to conjure her magical fire and burned the monsters down.
It about a year for Donna to finally settle, with a cave she call home. She can hunt for food and she can get water from a river nearby. She forced herself to learn how to survive and craft as many tools that she can.
She also discovered the system when she killed her third wolf to gain a level up. It was awkward but it took her about 5 minutes to learn that "Player Status" was the magic word to directly open her status screen.
With that, she spent her time getting better with the essential proficiencies that she needed to learn in order to survive. She learned carving and foraging first. She then started to bowyery and fletching to practice archery.
She dug holes with a wooden shovel that she crafted and planted spikes at the bottom before covering the stop with fresh leaves. Her traps worked like charm as it enabled her to catch beasts off guard. Their meat and their pelt are very crucial for her survival. Donna had it worse for sure but at least she survived an entire 4 seasons.
