Source plot synopsis — includes the ending

Once upon a time in the great Arc En Ciel Kingdom, the land lived in peace and harmony (and felt pretty boring), however out of sheer desperation for violence and bloodshed, the Devil himself summons the Curse of Eternal Night to spread darkness and unleash mindless hordes of monsters to bring forth chaos to the once peaceful lands.
Not liking their new lifestyle, the villagers asked the help of a mighty Wizard who promises to end the Devil's curse and bring harmony back to the kingdom. Upon hearing of their champions quest, the prince of darkness makes a deal with the cursed trickster Stingy Jack to forgive his past misdeeds in exchange to find and destroy the Wizard so he will not get rid of the curse. Armed with a assortment of weapons and befriending a crow, the pumpkin headed trickster travels the cursed kingdom to fight off many monsters and search for the powerful sorcerer.
