After years of adventuring, Viv the orc barbarian is ready to hang up her sword and pursue a new dream: opening the first coffee shop in the city of Thune.

With the help of unexpected allies, including a gnome and a dwarf baker, she navigates the ups and downs of starting a business. However, old rivals and the city's underbelly threaten to pull her back into her warrior past. As Viv builds her new life, she discovers that the true treasure lies in the friendships and bonds she forms along the way.
