Mere Immortal is a suspenseful serial fiction series, presented as a web novel

Over the years, Swift has drawn inspiration from thought-provoking stories such as Death Note, Metal Gear Solid, and Black Lagoon. The common theme among these narratives is their nuanced exploration of morality, presenting characters in shades of grey that prompt fans to question who is truly right or wrong. This exploration of morality forms the crux of Mere Immortal.

Mere Immortal is set in a world where a select group of individuals have been granted a level of immortality that shields them from succumbing to diseases or old age. These immortals can still meet a violent end, but their unique abilities deter most from attempting harm. However, such power brings far-reaching implications. Foreign governments perceive these immortals as political assets that the U.S. could leverage in warfare. And what transpires when these celebrated immortals succumb to corruption?

In response to a series of corrupt actions by the immortals, an organization known as Solace emerges to expose them and bring them to justice. Throughout Mere Immortal, readers will witness these two factions engaged in a tense game of psychological warfare.

As for its genre, Swift believes that Mere Immortal finds its place within Thriller, Action-Adventure, Technothriller, and Espionage categories.
