There's some love in this city;
There's a lot of blood.
Broken by life and growing up homeless, Lex is getting day by day solely with sarcasm, cigarettes and the need to prove those that think she can't survive for long wrong. At 14 years old, Lex is too mature for her own good, and knows of the horrors people miss out in fairytales.
In Highlacester, the best fighter is the most famous, the best gang has the best fighters, best ammo and most kills; as well as the best gang rules the streets.
The whole city is anarchy.
It is the last city. The war destroyed everything but this one city. It even destroyed parts of the city, but now people just live under the rubble as their home.
And Lex? She hides from the past. Insanity has finally caught up, but she knows her old self is inside her. Her inner voice is her old self, before she became 'Artemis', the best fighter on the streets that nobody can find, not even her lifelong friend.
