In the distant past, a time of magic and swordplay, there lived Harold — the mightiest lich of all, a master of arcane sciences, and a challenger of gods. After reaching the pinnacle of his power and finding it surprisingly bland, Harold waged a cataclysmic war against the gods, aiming to shatter the very system that confined him. Then, he took a nap. An incredibly long nap that ended with a jolt, thanks to an unwitting adventurer who tripped into Harold’s crypt. Blinking into the torchlight, Harold finds a world he barely recognizes. No more swords and sorcery, but a universe buzzing with cultivation, celestial sects, and far too many pretentious dialogues about the path to godhood. Harold is no naïve cultivator, he’s an ancient lich with a single ambition: to slide back into his uninterrupted eternal slumber. But the cacophony of quarreling sects and smug martial artists seems determined to keep him awake. Undeterred, the sleep-deprived overlord is ready to confront this brave new world. After all, no aspiring deity, no grandiose sect, and certainly no self-righteous martial artist is going to rob him of his beauty sleep. © 2023 Ravens Dagger ℗ 2023 Soundbooth Theater

In the distant past, a time of magic and swordplay, there lived Harold, the mightiest lich of all, a master of arcane sciences, and a challenger of gods. After reaching the pinnacle of his power and finding it surprisingly bland, Harold waged a cataclysmic war against the gods, aiming to shatter the very system that confined him. He took a nap, but he is awake once more. Upon discovering that the new gods have been using some of his phylacteries as batteries to sustain themselves and grow more powerful, Harold has decided to take back what is his. He won’t be alone. Accompanied by his faithful butler and maid Alex and a limpet that just won’t leave no matter how often he teleports her over the nearest lake, Harold journeys north and east. The Flaming Steppes await. An untamed land where great mantises roam and where a few fiery sects have made their homes, cultivating and growing in one of the harshest environments in the Divine Kingdom. They are not prepared for Harold and his companions. © 2023 Ravens Dagger ℗ 2024 Soundbooth Theater

Every self-respecting lich has a few hundred phylacteries at a minimum, and Harold wants to check in on a few thousand of his. Rumors reach him that the vicious Mantis Queen has one of them. Naturally, she’s at the other end of the region. It’s just a casual stroll across the deserted and inhospitable Flaming Steppes. Inhospitable for the living, that is! Fenfang Fang – the Limpet – is taking her job as Harold’s very first warlock seriously. The ancient lich figures it’s time for his protégé to learn the ins-and-outs of politics by ruling an entire city. Baby steps! Ruling the decrepit city of Yu Xiang looks easy enough. A mudhole at the ass-end of the Empire, ashen dirt that’s nearly impossible to farm, waters filled with dangerous beasts, could it be any easier? Of course, rumors reach the Jade Throne that a horrible Lich has taken over the city, and an army of conscripts and lessor cultivators is formed to uproot the great evil. What fantastical sights will Harold see on his trip? Will Limpet be able to keep the city and her head from the army? And the biggest question of all – Will Rem finally get to eat Alex? © 2025 Ravens Dagger ℗ 2025 Soundbooth Theater
