A dark presence has settled over the county of Bourdagne. Diabolical omens plague the countryside, including bizarre crop failures, mysterious disappearances, and reports of demons stalking the forest at night. A prize mare has given birth to a fully grown mad dog. A statue of Christ has transformed into the image of a demon. In the face of mounting evidence, the rulers of Bourdagne are forced to admit that the devil has come to their little county. In desperation, the countess, Emiline, sends a party to Florence to seek out a mysterious and secretive mage who might be their only hope of uncovering the shadows that have settled over Bourdagne. But is he trustworthy, and can they bear to face the evil that gnaws like a hungry worm at the heart of their realm?
