The note, delivered by a nearly crow-like creature, was on vellum, pierced by its talons. Karou, a seventeen-year-old art student in Prague, read the message and sighed. She never said please, but she always came when Brimstone called. In general, Karou had managed to keep her two lives in balance. On the one hand, she was a seventeen-year-old art student in Prague, and on the other, she was an errand-girl to a monstrous creature who was the closest thing she had to family. Raised half in our world, half in Elsewhere, she had never understood Brimstone's dark work—buying teeth from hunters and murderers—nor how she came into his keeping. She was a secret even to herself, plagued by the sensation that she wasn't whole.

Now, the doors to Elsewhere were closing, and Karou was faced with a daunting choice. She had to choose between the safety of her human life and the dangers of a war-ravaged world that may hold the answers she had always sought.

As the doors to Elsewhere closed, Karou found herself in a world that was both familiar and unfamiliar. The streets were filled with debris, and the air was thick with the scent of smoke and death. The buildings were crumbling, and the people she encountered were pale and haggard, their eyes filled with fear and despair.

Karou had always been drawn to the mysteries of Elsewhere, and now she was determined to find the answers she had always sought. She knew that Brimstone had been working on a secret project, and she was determined to find out what it was.

As she made her way.
