Morgan's elevation to the peerage came with costs. He was tasked to find Jerek, the Master Assassin, and eliminate the threat, hunt down the bloody tentacles, and get a handle on the demonic incursions into the underground. Sounded like everyday work for The Duchy's Necromancer. With the Blackman house razed, Morgan must make some decisions on what to do and how to move forward with his house and his new housemate. Deciding the best way to keep Missy Blackman safe was to help her become stronger, they set out to do that.

After his service to the duchy, the capital city has come to a reluctant acceptance of Morgan Lovecraft. More and more he's finding that people react more to the fear of what he could do rather than what he actually did. All Morgan wanted was to finish his time at the mage's academy but it seems his life as a student there is all but over after fate stepped in his way. Many revelations and tribulations, allies, and enemies are waiting for Morgan when he decides to continue playing A Game of The Dead.

Saved by Duke Kinson, Morgan found a new life in the world of Dunnishire. Orphaned as a young teenager, he found himself in a new world where making friends was easy. That all came crashing down the day he turned sixteen and found out he not only had a death affinity, but was also a necromancer. For a time, all necromancers were put down before they could gain levels or power.

With Amara and Alana's support, Matt starts to get ready for the orphanage and school's dream to become a reality. Neera, always around to pitch in, cheer them up, or cause problems, finds part of what's been missing in her life.

When Alister uncovers a hidden dungeon, Matthew takes a chance to bury the hatchet with his enemy. Proposing a portal network to connect places in both worlds raises some eyebrows as it's very difficult and expensive to do. Still, Dunnishire lost much of its settled areas in wars over the last century. With the power to cross the country, Matthew envisions not only a portal network but also a network of dreams—a school and an orphanage. Yet, dreams require funds, driving him to work to become stronger and wealthier.

Matthew's life takes a crazy turn when a simple holiday visit turns into a crazy adventure. Swapping his marketing desk for an unexpected inheritance—the bookstore left behind by his uncle—he's led to a hidden portal. This isn't just any portal; it leads to a realm. A new world of dungeons, quests, and game-like mechanics. Matthew emerges on the other side to find himself not only in the realm of Dunnishire but also as a Royal Duke in the land of Inneshys. As he navigates courtly life, he inadvertently sets off ripples that threaten to disrupt the delicate balance in the new world.
