Someone wants the power that Aki wields and they're not above crushing the one person who can control her. If you can't beat Yusei in card games, what else is there? But to crush the Saint's heart.

Soma thought the original Castle, Celia, and his true past were enough for him to deal with, but there are those who wish to influence him back to his old ways. A tug of war with the fate of one Vampire Lords' soul as those who would see their figure head restored on one side and those who wish to protect him. While a third party lines their shot at his throne.

Growing up is hard to do and even harder when you're the reincarnation of an Egyptian Pharaoh. Not all traps are mere ink on card stock. It's time to play the Game again Yugi.

What should have been a reasonable pruning session just got derailed. Violently.
