An empath's life is never easy. Emotions, clogging the mind and stiffling the senses. Love, fear, anger, longing, grief, happiness.
Michaela Damiani, or Dame as she goes by, knows this better than any other. She has no clue that she's the most powerful empath known, or that she's being followed by divine forces, determined to protect her... or slaughter her before she becomes too powerful.
Dame's life is being watched. Stalked. Just as she unwillingly gains an insight into other's emotions, more others than she cares to know are watching her life. Those from above, from below, and from her own town are following her every move.
