Voechenka is a city under siege. Decimated by the Battlemage war, its dead now walk the city at night, attacking survivors, calling their names and begging the living to join them beyond the grave.
Tammy is a watchman sent to the city to investigate so the ruling powers can decide whether to help Voechenka or leave it to its grisly fate.
