Since her father disappeared three years ago, she has used her skills to search for him in dungeons filled with goblins, Minotaurs, and all sorts of other dangerous creatures. As Clay goes deeper than anyone has ever gone before, she meets the dungeon warden. To her surprise, Clay was invited to join the staff! And thus, Clay begins his new job—learning the inner workings and behind-the-scenes secrets of the dungeon from the inside.
