Abducted by law, Kenneth Shaw has his eyes opened to a world not all are supposed to see. A world passed down as cautionary tales to keep children home during dinnertime. Creatures, extraordinarily cruel, yet unassumingly not, gladiate for every last breath of yours they can claim. While their exact opposite also exist, patrolling the majorly unhallowed lands, preying on everything that moves. Immortals from seemingly nowhere, their unending age descending them to despotism. And near-magical entities, so very humane, yet no 'human' is guaranteed to not be the Devil in disguise. A human in the flesh is little more than a plaything to such nightmarish beings, Kenneth being no different. Yet he can't help but smile at his to-be pawns.
