Gild and Giselle were happily married gnomish warlocks just looking for a way to get more power. Rather than spend years and years studying magic at some pretentious university, they elected to bring a moderately powered demon into their world and pact with it. Unfortunately, they pulled a Demon Lord through, who promptly took Giselle, leaving Gild alone and blaming himself. Now, he is doing everything in his power to bring her back, even if it means travelling to the Other Realm itself, home to the demons.
