After successfully capturing one of five fragments of her stolen powers, forces beyond Illadra's understanding lure her to the darkest jungles of Asia in her quest to recover the lost heritage she once possessed as Lady Death! But horror awaits her on the open seas as the evil resonating from her recovered power crystal infects the crew of the ship she travels upon, an evil that twists them all into murderous, undead beasts with a taste for human flesh. But should she survive the voyage, can she possibly stand alone against the vile, supernaturally-twisted Fung Wei and his castle of torture, or the demonic Black Ghost Guards who defend their master? Co-written by Mike (Gravel, Wolfskin) Wolfer and original creator Brian Pulido, this series promises to be the most powerful Lady Death tale ever!
