Ashaf and Guideau's new mission sees them travel to the Third Continent in pursuit of a witch on a killing spree.

Helga and Guideau go head-to-head with the Paladin Corps's Matt Cugat, an ice mage with power to rival a witch. While they struggle to escape with the Demon Sword, Ashaf suspects a plot.

Wounded and worn out, Ashaf, Guideau, and Cugat are all that stand between an Executioner with a fortress full of Paladins at his command and the Demon Sword.
