Carl was "lucky" to be outside when the syndicate repo'd the earth. He wasn't instantly killed when all buildings were smooshed. He and his girlfriends cat are gonna go into a DND dungeon and try to survive.
Ch 2 pg 13
Carl and cat make their way through the dungeon to a rat man i a tutorial room. Carl has to punch a couple goblins before rat man let's him in. Rat man is named mordekai.
This book has got me. I care if Carl lives or dies. Here's the key quote from Carl that did it "i didn't have time to think about the stupidity of the jokes."
Ch 3 pg 24
Carl asks mordekai for advice. Mordekai says if he doesnt do something about the goblins theyre gonna go home and get their whole family and come back. Carl doesnt love this so he kills the remaining goblins and comes back. Mordekai then explains that humans aren't special, this is one of many human seeded worlds and humans never do well in these dungeons as theyre too busy asking why this is happening and they get killed waiting around for answers instead of rolling with the punches like the arakocra mordekai comes from. Omg, you seen regular show? There's a bird man named mordekai on that show. Wonder if this mordekai is based on that character.
Ch 4 pg 34
