Synopsis:

Deep underground in a fantastic world, an ancient evil lurks...The Octopus God is cruel, or so the feathered Wingfolk say. He rules over his domain with a set of turntables that do much more than drop hot beats, and his desire to keep the coveted Blue Crystal for himself knows few boundaries. So begins the tale of Eagle's Quarry, the video game that 35-year-old secretary Liz Curley thinks may hold the key to the otherworldly changes her body is undergoing.Liz's hunch proves itself correct when she and her friends are warped inside of Eagle's Quarry and stranded in the Sea Cave Domain, home of end boss MC Tentachill and his loyal minions, the Octopods. The more Liz lingers around these ugly creatures, the more she imagines herself among them, complete with bulging eyes and spiraling tentacle legs. And, as the changes she dreams of begin to manifest, she finds herself feeling happy despite her dwindling humanity.

In her heart, Liz knows she needs to go home. She's just not sure which world that's in anymore.This story contains mature situations and is not intended for readers who have not reached the age of eighteen.
