Nick gets betrayed by the one person he trusted, then spends the entire show proving that cynicism works better than faith ever did. This isn't a redemption arc or a "believe in friendship" story. This is four broken people who stopped waiting for the world to be fair and started winning anyway. The party that nobody wanted becomes the one nobody can stop.

Nick gets betrayed by the adventuring party he worked hard for, accused of embezzling and thrown out by the leader he respected. At a tavern he ends up at the same table as mage Tiana, cleric Zem and half-dragon Curran, each of them there alone. As the night wears on, they trade complaints and talk about the hobbies they picked up to cope. Their stories differ, but every one of them was betrayed by someone they cherished, and all four have come to distrust humanity. They are also all short on money. So they team up as a party, aiming to climb the ranks and earn enough to fund their hobbies. None of them knows that this group of disillusioned adventurers will someday save the world. The result is a fantasy action adventure built around a party of cynics.
