The new story starts with Daniel Durante, the embodiment of greed and privilege, and Skylar Mooney the daughter of a Durante family staff member. In the first issue, Daniel and his brother attempted to sacrifice Skylar to a demon for their own gain. It appeared to be unsuccessful, but a demonic spirit attached itself to Daniel and has been guiding him ever since he was a teenager.

Maldor, Malik, and the Tin Man have discovered the corpse of a giant fearsome beast, and it leaves the old sorcerer quite concerned. He and the Tin Man know of monsters that can feed on souls, and now they must traverse a twisting road to a castle and the dungeon that is supposed to hold those creatures prisoner.
