Hopefully, Marie, if this gets published in like never, you don't throw the book across the room ;)

Prologue

This is a warning to, well, pretty much everyone.

I grew up hearing stories about the morte. They were so-called "demonic" beings that haunted the earth, for whatever reason. They're said to be dangerous, and will kill anything just for the fun of it. Most of the time, they leave us alone. Most of the time. Thankfully, the chances of one of you stumbling into one of them are about one in a hundred, and hopefully that chance will never find you.

But if it does happen to you, if you crawl into one of their traps by accident, or happen to run into them, there's only one piece of advice I can give you.

Run.

--Sophie

 P.S. I'll probably not mention the morte much in this story, except for when they actually show up, so, I apologize for the inconvenience.
