Synopsis:
In a city of the dead, long since ruined and far from human civilization, lives a single human child. His name is Will, and he is being raised by three undead: the skeletal warrior, Blood; the graceful mummified priestess, Maria; and the eccentric spectral sorcerer, Gus. The three lavish love on the boy and teach him everything they know. But one day, Will begins to ask himself, "Who am I?"
Will must unravel the mysteries of the distant land of the dead and unearth the secret past of the undead. He must learn the love and mercy of the good gods, and the prejudice and madness of the evil. And when he knows all, the boy will take the first step on the path to becoming a Paladin."I promised you. It'll take a while, but I'll tell you everything. This is the story of the deaths of many heroes. It's the story of how we die, and it's the reason you grew up here."
