In Erebus, the Upper region of the Underworld surrounded by walls, Scott and his family live their ordinary lives until, one day, Scott discovers umbra, misty shadow-like beings, have invaded Erebus underneath everyone's noses. While Scott plans to move them back to the underworld, mysterious forces drag him out of the walls and into the vast world full of magical creatures and spiritual abilities.

And along with the impending doom he faces, he also experiences his and others' pasts through bonding with them. Broken dragon families, hurting siren royalty, and thieving orcs will be met and their pasts will unfold to create a bigger picture within a ripped paper.

Scott woke up refreshed, although his body is sore. He didn't bother with another shower, he's going to trial four today so it won't matter until after.. 


Grayson ordered some weird menu items from the twin dragons and wanted to cry when they mention the moon rabbit toast and, a new item, pickled hell bunny. 


Scott watches this all trying not to laugh. "These meals sound so strange. Can't wait to eat them." 


"I can wait." Grayson looks pale, some people just can't handle the food of the dungeon. 


Eggy stays sleeping until the food shows up. 


After a breakfast of 'Faceless Mountain Pastries' and 'Tenderized Crescent Grizzly Bear' Scott and Grayson, with Eggy following, were escorted back to the trial room where the Dragon Lord was waiting. 


"Welcome Scott, Grayson." Today the dragon lord appeared quite friendly, he welcomed them with a smile. 


Grayson stood awkwardly next to Scott and bowed his head.
