To become death in Venetica is a calling, fulfilled by a man of flesh and
blood - equipped with special supernatural skills in order to be able to
carry out the duties of the office.

A new death is selected regularly by "Corpus", a secret council. This time
however Corpus really makes a wrong decision: The "new" death, Victor,
turns out to be a crazed necromancer who manages to turn himself into an
overpowering undead with seedy tricks and dark rituals and thus attains
almost unlimited power in addition to immortality.

As it is strictly forbidden for the chosen death to devote himself to
necromancy, the committee revokes Victor's nomination immediately and
declares a new death in his stead without delay.

The power-hungry Victor however does not want to relinquish his position
again. He continues to practice the dark arts in order to gather numerous
dark and dangerous creatures and tainted souls from the underworld around
him. He thus succeeds in eliminating the newly designated death and takes
over his power for his own purposes. The effects on the world's balance are
calamitous and - should Victor be able to keep himself in power - its dark
consequences are irreversible.

Only a person who has the same mighty powers as Victor can prevent his
prevailing and vent him his deserved punishment.

Scarlett, the daughter of the real death does not know anything about her
ancestry and the hidden talents which slumber within her. She is immersed
suddenly in this story due to the brutal attack on her home village and
the tragic loss of Benedict, the love of her life.

It is a story which she now begins to write herself, a story during the
course of which she unleashes her capabilities, a story in which she tries
to save Benedict from the world of the dead and a story in which she must
protect the world of the living from the dark threat posed by Victor and
his henchmen.
