Some where in the world is the kingdom of Vexius.
In this kingdom there is 5 noble families.
Each year these families compete in the noble games. 
They are a competition between each family that the oldest child participates in to represent their family. After the eldest child turns 18 the torch is pasted to the next eldest.
These games used to have real effects of the placement but now they are just held for tradition.
Frita is going to do her first noble games this upcoming spring. She needs to follow in her brothers foot steps and come first. 
She may not be able to do that because of the good and bad things that happen along the way. Including something that could potentially could stop the games for that year or even worse.... for good.
The question is will the games be held this year and on or will they never happen again. Will Frita come first if the games are held?

But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
