The book begins with the player being attacked by an assassin and scratched by a Death Spell Dagger. The player must travel to the Great Throne to defeat the evil Chingiz, handing back the dagger to defeat its magic. This book features the second appearance of the wizard Astragal, who is a recurring character in Luke Sharp's books. The player must collect Medallions during this adventure. The player must go through trials to obtain these. Like many of Luke Sharp's books, there is a large emphasis on random dice rolls, obtaining one of the Medallions even involves a kind of board game.
