For hundreds of years, Calaren Town had been offering virgin maidens to fulfill their part on the treaty they made with the Court of Shadows to keep their small town under their protection. To be chosen meant death to the townsfolk, as there was no turning back to becoming a human again. Upon realizing that her younger sister was chosen as one of the maidens to be sacrificed by their impoverished town to the thirteen demon lords who once ruled their land, Iris Scarborough volunteered to take her place instead to save her. There was nothing exceptional about Iris, except for the secret she was keeping from everyone. However, even before she was taken away, Iris had already caught the eye of one of the demon lords. Rumors say that Lord Kieran Fleurnoir was the personification of death. His mere presence was enough to suck the life essence out of those around him. He was also known to be one of the strongest demons of all time, who possesses extremely dangerous and powerful magic. Taken to Asnar, a place filled with magical beings and monsters, Iris found herself enthralled and captivated not only by the place and its residents, but also by the cold and enigmatic demon lord, Lord Kieran. Once there, Iris realized that Asnar and Lord Kieran himself were different from what humans thought them to be. Loosely based on the tales of ‘Hades and Persephone’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’.

In the year 1992, an extra-terrestrial race dubbed the 'Faeries' accidentally landed on Earth in Britain, causing the very first contact between aliens and humans. However, this contact was kept a tight secret by the British Government. They spent time on Earth and before they left, they gave humanity a parting gift; their genetic code. They hoped humanity would use it to create a brighter future for themselves by uniting as a race. The British government used the genes to create supernatural humans with experiments that lasted several long years. After eventually increasing their success rate, more and more superhumans were produced, but their powers were kept secret. The powers they got? Stronger bodies and minds, to summarize a few. But most importantly, they could connect and communicate with a form of sentient energy named as 'Spirits'. There were also intelligent versions, named as 'Greater Spirits'. The new superhumans could control spirits to manipulate nature, or even persuade a Greater Spirit to help them do so. In the futuristic society of 2056, a young man, the last of the Faerie Superhuman successes and an experienced detective, has been transferred to the London Police to solve an uprising crime that specifically requires his assistance. His partner? A sassy no-nonsense detective with a great record to go with her feminine charms. The catch? She doesn't believe Faeries or Superhumans exist. Join these two in their journey of uncovering the truth behind a dark conspiracy centered around the bustling city of London, as well as dealing with personal problems along the way.

However, things quickly go south as he finds himself trapped, and put on display in an Alchemist's shop.
