Murdered! And by the hands of a real loser.

Instead of waking up eternally doomed to burn in the pits of Hell, I awoke in the courtyard of Castle Dominion. It is my very own loving succubus, Lilith, who tells me that I was once a feared Castle Core. So terrifying in fact—that my walls were torn down and the life force in my Core banished to Earth. Now along with my beautiful succubus and Desire—the first of my new dark harem—I will rebuild myself.

Soon adventurers will flock to me to test their mettle against the deadly challenges I have planned for them. Some will prevail. And those who don’t will either perish or serve my needs. But most of all, I plan to find out who destroyed me and banished me. And once I do, my revenge will be swift and deadly!
