Wally, an apprentice mage with a knack for cataloging artifacts and an unmatched talent for making mistakes, dreams of adventure but stumbles into chaos instead. Bez, a devil imprisoned in an artifact, despises the mages and their dusty archives, particularly the overly polite Wally.
When a catastrophic attack on the mage archives unearths secrets better left buried, Wally and Bez accidentally bind their fates. One seeks freedom, the other survival—but neither anticipated the cost. Hunted as a threat, they flee through a city cracking under tension, each new corner harboring greater peril.
With time running out and trust in short supply, the unlikely duo must uncover the real enemy or risk everything—freedom, safety, and their lives. Will they succeed, or will their uneasy alliance crumble under the weight of betrayal?
