In the aristocratic high empire of Loren, the House of Necromancy was once revered as the supreme shield against eldritch horrors until a coordinated purge by imperial paladins branded death magic an unforgivable heresy. Ray Loren, the youngest son of the slaughtered matriarch, survived the massacre through a forbidden soul-binding ritual that preserved his consciousness inside an ancient crypt for two hundred years. Awakening as a fragile boy in an empire ruled by the very hypocrites who betrayed his lineage, Ray discovers that the imperial capital is secretly rotten with demonic corruption.
Inheriting the pure primordial death crest of his ancestors, Ray can see the souls of legendary fallen heroes and command spectral legions that bypass mortal defenses. Navigating the cutthroat social hierarchy of the imperial academy where paladins hunt forbidden practitioners, Ray conceals his true abilities behind a veneer of quiet mediocrity while secretly forging an unstoppable phantom army. To avenge his fallen bloodline and reclaim the Loren estate, the young heir prepares to awaken the forgotten monarchs of the underworld.
