With arms and sorcery, Baron Mandrol has ruled Medecia, displaying as proof of his ultimate control his collection of life-like death masks of fallen rivals. Yet one mask more than any other contains some essence of the one it represents, that of the wizard Viktor Falsche, and when it is placed on the face of a hapless peasant, Viktor receives one last chance to gain his revenge against the monstrous baron and free Medecia. However, his time is limited, for the mask will soon deteriorate beyond saving...and with its destruction will go the last of Viktor Falsche.
