Do you think you survive in a prison that reeks of death every corner you turn?
Madeline sure as hell doesn't think so, but she isn't going to let herself die in that horrible place, even if she has nothing else to live for.
Along the lines of fighting to secure another day of her otherwise miserable life, she meets a low class thieving assassin who wants to team up with her and keep each other alive. Of course Madeline doesn't trust anyone in that place, I mean how could she, it's full of people gunning for each others necks. Although he claims he cant possibly survive on his own, she cant help but notice the way he carries himself, the way he fights and the sinister look in his eyes when he takes a life. Madeline is no fool, she knows that he doesn't need her and she sure as hell doesn't need him. But yet he's persistent on keeping her near him.
