Death is not the end.

For them, it’s only the beginning.

Across centuries and continents, from Viking-age Iceland to feudal Japan, from the battlefields of revolutions to the shadows of industrial London, seven souls have been bound by a force they barely understand. Each time they die, they are reborn. Each life, a new identity. Each death is a step closer to the truth.

Karl was the first to return… and the first to remember.

Guided by a mysterious song that defies death itself, he reunites his scattered companions across time, warriors, nobles, outcasts, or worse, shaped by the lives they’ve lived. But immortality has its price. Memories fracture. Humanity erodes. And not all of them remain the same.

Now, in a modern world torn by a strange phenomenon where technology fails and war reverts to steel and blood, they fight once more as mercenaries known as the Apple Eaters.

They are hired to fight a mysterious enemy.

Another mercenary group challenges their strength, and the Apple Eaters will discover that immortality has many surprises for them, even after living five lives already.

As past and present collide, a greater threat rises from the shadows, one that seeks to control the cycle itself.

To stay together as a team, they must answer the question that has haunted them through every lifetime:

What does it truly mean to live… If you can never truly die?
