Helfyre's faithful manservant recovered most of the charred remains and laid them in a secret tomb, from where Helfyre would carry on his black arts in the guise of a hideous and all powerful DEATH DEMON . . . Now, on the eve of the 200th anniversary of that terrible night, you the BLADE WARRIOR must reuinite Helfyre's missing skill with ther rest of his remains to finally lay the Demon to rest.
