After an earthquake opens up a large chasm, some old catacombs become exposed. Said to be the resting place of an old God, a young adult man named Fenryn journeys there to find the cause of the undead rising out of the ground and causing panic. There, he meets and befriends a female Enerawyn (or elf to humans) named Lynnette, and together they find out the reason for the walking corpses now appearing. However, once they leave the catacombs, bandits surround them! Believing Fenryn would make for a handsome ransom, they capture him. The man just can't seem to catch a break!
