Lord Devereaux’s manor is built upon a gateway that has existed since the dawn of time. Part of his sacred duty is to guard this threshold against any who would use its power for evil.

On the other side of this doorway is pure chaos. The place where ideas are born. The realm of Pandemonium. For eons, the realm has remained dormant, but now that has changed.

The chaos of Pandemonium is encroaching on our world. If left unchecked, it could consume everything we know. It would be the end of the world as know it.
