The game begins with a retelling of the Great War of Gallowmere, where Sir Daniel Fortesque (the game's main protagonist) supposedly defeated the evil sorcerer Zarok, before dying himself. He was known as the ''Hero of Gallowmere'' since then. This is shown to be just a lie made up by King Peregrin, however, since Daniel was killed by the very first wave of arrows fired. | The game begins with a retelling of the Great War of Gallowmere, where Sir Daniel Fortesque (the game's main protagonist) supposedly defeated the evil sorcerer Zarok, before dying himself.

Zarok, although believed to be dead, managed to escape the battlefield, fleeing into hiding. 100 years later, he returns. He steals the souls of the townsfolk, brings the dead and inanimate to life. Unknowningly, however, he also revives Dan, who retains his free will. Being the only one who can stop him, Daniel leaves his crypt and begins his journey through Gallowmere, which, if he succeeds, would make him the hero he had never became in life. | [[File:Livelli_6.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Zarok entering the Graveyard.]]Zarok, although believed to be dead, managed to escape the battlefield, fleeing into hiding. 100 years later, he returns.
