You get magic and therapy, and they get to figure out how to human. The main characters are: A clinically depressed grunge boy with PTSD who also happens to be a slave, an abused girl with some kind of dissociative panic disorder who just wants senpai to notice her, a middle-aged recovered alcoholic who is seeing apocalyptic visions of the past but only when it rains, and the vision man's son, the world's bestest himbo and only mentally stable one in the whole dang book. Also there's a war on, and an impending mystery apocalypse. Also racism, heavy moral questions about the nature of violence, leadership, justice, and slavery, as well as a professional serial killer with religious issues. But then again there's also a pacifist polynesian Russian giant who just wants to cook stew and give his friends haircuts, so it balances out."</blockquote>
