The world has ended, and His Unholy Majesty, the Void Witch, reigns.

Everything beyond The City's Wall has been consumed by the Void Witch's black ocean. The toxic waters distort and stain human skin, leaving people tainted fragments of themselves. In the waters, the Necromancer's prized leeches, the Medusa Walkers, stalk the night in the corpses of friends and family, turning men to stone.

Sometimes, The Void Witch demands a bride. 

Young girls blur away their faces in the water, hoping the aren't cursed with the nightmare that is beauty. Because who would ever want to become The Void Witch's Bride? The Lily of the Rot? Maiden Mangle? Lady Faceless?  Who'd ever want to be tossed into the Void Sea, never to return? Just to please the Devil Chaos? Certainly not Adrienne. Besides, she isn't one of the Women of the Waste. She's simply Of the Stone- tasked to clean up the petrified remains of those unfortunate enough to look a Medusa Walker in the eyes. Drowning in a black wedding dress is last on her agenda.  

But people are cruel. Perhaps crueler than the Witch.  And there's something outside in the darkness waiting-- calling her name in a tongue she didn't know she spoke. It's only a matter of time before The Wall comes falling down...
