Once upon a time when they were young and inexperienced, Dale and James made a lot of mistakes. Sometimes innocent people paid the price.

Christmas morning, one of the mistakes from their past comes back to haunt Dale.

Tyler Gillian was a little boy when James destroyed his life. In the years since Dale last saw him, Tyler has become a powerful practitioner of magic; strange magic that Dale knows almost nothing about.

Every spell has a counter and every curse can be broken, at least that is what Dale has always believed, but this time things are different. If Dale wants to save his friends, he may have to give up everything.
