Alastair, a mercenary who is little different than the king, will stop at nothing for his share of gold. He counts heads like bags of money, and sees hearts like archers' targets for practice. After slaughtering the Prince Arthur of Castle Odell, pawn to the Norman Invasion led by Duke William, he is tossed aside as another useless sell-sword. He takes up arms once again as he is requested by the mayor of the Village Laput to see the last breath of the demon Beelzebub, a ghastly creature that laid curse to every man and child in the village.
Alastair's crawl through the endless dungeon bears more complication than one might think, as he presses into the very pits of hell to do battle with the Lord of the Flies.
