Ian Dunai is an arch-decemancer with total command of death magic, powerful enough to conquer cities, yet he cannot escape the loop of time he is trapped in. When he finally finds the clue that should free him, he learns he has only cleared the first layer. From that origin the story opens outward, escalating from one man in a cage to a world that keeps getting larger and more dangerous around him.
