Kazimir, a Russian boy, is visiting some friends when he's kidnapped and he's beaten to the point of no emotion or return. He hears of a legend from a wolf woman, about a man who will take the woman/man who finds the Death flower. Kazimir questions the woman, but she said the Death flower isn't what is seems... it stands out like a red rose in a blue flower garden, hidden in plain sight. The Death King is known to have long, white hair and he's always seen in snug, black clothing.
