Faced against death, a Mortician Apprentice feels alive once again.

A deadly competition originating from a Ugandan myth selects combatants. Each representing a god of death and armed with special "Relics". The prize? Being given the chance to have any wish related to death granted.

The newest and unlikely competitor is a Mortician Apprentice who is pulled away from a monotonous lifestyle and paired with a reluctant and not-so-reliable sharpshooter, and a loopy driver who seems to only be in interested in the well-being of his van.

With a slew of trained killers with mystical weapons out to end their lives, a new will reignites inside the Mortician and a suppressed side of her surfaces, but possibly at the cost of her sanity.
