After last semester ended in catastrophe, Arcane Acre opens for its second year. Returning students are joined by some new faces: Lance du Lac, the mysterious prodigy from Wonderland; Mary Medina, a young woman who can control the dead; and Wiglaf, a little lion man with a lot of heart. As these newbies get accustomed to the school, the looming threat that emerged from beneath the school months ago draws closer to the students… and it’s only a matter of time before tragedy will strike again.
