The endgame draws near for Vampire Lord Inkume. After defying fate, surviving relentless sieges, and forging unexpected bonds with the strangest of friends, villagers, and the heroes once sent to destroy him, Inkume now faces a witching hour darker than any midnight ever before. His dungeon, now a true refuge for misfits and monsters alike, stands at the crossroads of annihilation and new beginnings, as the armies of the world finally unite to storm his haunted halls.

After barely surviving the first onslaught of holy warriors, overzealous priestesses, and determined heroines, the world's most heartthrob-by-necessity Vampire Lord isn't out of the woods yet! Once an introvert just hoping to keep his head attached, Inkume now faces ever more determined adventurers eager to claim his demise… or perhaps, fall under his unexpected spell. But life as an unwillingly charming villain only gets more complicated.

Throughout the Kingdom, Defenders constantly fight against incursions of dungeon monsters rampaging over the border the Kingdom shares with the Wildlands. To keep the danger to their citizens low, they periodically sweep through these untamed areas filled with natural beasts and roaming dungeon monsters, destroying as many Dungeon Cores as they can find. Tempara was practically a newborn when Defenders from the Kingdom snatched her away, only to be forced to watch in horror as tragedy fell upon the rest of her pack.

Fresh off her victory in the Verdant Forest, the Greater Temporal Fox-turned-Dungeon Core discovers that the next stop in her journey to free her family (and save the world) is the Charwell Desert, located south of the Kingdom. This barren region is a far cry from the lush forest she had just left, as there is nothing living amongst the endless sand dunes that sweep across the landscape.
