Ander, a fourth-tier skeleton mage, is obsessed with a powerful artifact that could change everything—but he's not even close to strong enough to claim it. With a motley crew of chaotic undead servants, Ander must hunt, dominate, and manipulate the realm's most fearsome creatures to build an unstoppable force. As he scrambles to gain strength, battle through deadly rivals, and prepare for a magical tournament that could catapult him into power, Ander faces one question: Can a skeleton like him really claim the artifact, or will the world crush him underfoot?
