When the king of an infernal realm disappears, the palace guardians are charged with bringing him back. However, their target is devious and has plans of his own. Can a resolute swordmaiden, a shape-shifting assassin, a sorceress, and two oddballs cooperate long enough to find him? Or is their mission doomed from the start?

Caution: While some parts of this story are funny and light-hearted, others are dark.
