In every being, every human, there is bound to be one sin; whether that be lust, gluttony, sloth, greed, envy, wrath or vanity; this is the story of our world's vile wrongdoings and the malicious beings that live within it. This is the story of the forgotten eighth sin of the infamous seven deadly sins. The child that is broken beyond repair, but repairs others at the expense of her own happiness. The child who has suffered from an unbearably unfair lifetime and had to push through. This is the story of Tristitia.
