In the virtual realm of 'Eldertree Altharaan, ' Isolde Necrosoul, a mature player stuck in a mundane dead-end real-life job, logs into the game one last time as the servers prepare to shut down after a decade of adventures. Leading the formidable guild 'Xaylar Von Grimace, ' he watches as his guildmates bid farewell one by one until he stands alone. Isolde, a level 100 Necromancer aspiring to become a 'Nethermancer, ' takes a final tour of his guild tower, offering heartfelt farewells to his beloved home.

Something has gone terribly awry, and he finds himself trapped within the very game world he thought he had bid adieu.
