"Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world." - - - ✄ - - - Following a bizarre and devastating family tragedy, resilient Y/N attempts to gather up the scattered remnants of her life and relocates to the city of London in search of new opportunities and a fresh start. The reality of her new home, however, was far less picturesque than what she'd imagined. Not only riddled with sickness and poverty, the cobblestone streets of 1890's London were also ripe with something else-- murder. Through a series of events (equally fortunate and unfortunate) our young protagonist finds herself tangled up in the sordid lives of six individuals, and subsequently becomes ensnared in their web of unfathomable horrors and arcane mysteries beyond the realm of humanly knowledge. All, of course, beginning with a chance encounter with a certain young mad scientist.
