The animated series is based on the webcomic of the same name. Sette Frummagem, a Sharteshanian girl, is tasked by her father, the crime lord Nary-a-Care, to extort tribute from her cousin Stockyard, a black sheep of the family who has started his own business in the country of Cresce. Duane Adelier, an Aldish undead scrivener and skilled mage, is forced to accompany her as a bodyguard despite his hatred of Cresce. On their way to Cresce, the duo clashes with the Red Berry Boys, a group of criminals who disembowel kidnapped children and replace their organs with a supernatural material, and two members of the Crescian Peaceguard who mistakenly believe Duane and Sette are in league with the Red Berry Boys. Upon reaching Stockyard, he reveals Sette's father lied to her about the true nature of her mission, which involves using Duane and the Red Berry Boys to craft a superweapon that will upset the delicate balance of power between Cresce and Alderode. Sette and Duane team up with the Crescian Peaceguard and Mathis Quigley, a former employee of the Red Berry Boys, to uncover the truth behind the conspiracy and stop it before it unleashes terrible destruction upon Kasslyne.
