In your jail cell you found a mystical tome called the Book of Golam, which has the power to draw its reader in, make them experience what is inscribed within. You will play as a sorcerer to battle against monsters, but the magic you control is governed by arcane principles, great strength comes at a great price. There is magic that springs from the objects around you like wood or rock, also powerful magic that can be obtained through great sacrifice - part of your body or life-force.

I like the concept of achieving something "at a heavy price". What happens if you become a monster? Will the townspeople attack you?; Will you game over right away?; Will you get the bad ending? Hopefully it is the first one.
