Jagged is a small Jaggi who gets left alone in a strange land after his beloved owner, Rose, is captured by a hostile Rathalos. Refusing to believe she has become dinner, he sets out across a vast world to find her. Along the way, he meets an array of other monsters who ether join him and offer to help him achieve his goal, or vow to hinder his goal for their own malicious purposes. In a world teetering on full blown war, Jagged will have to be very careful who he can trust.
Rose is sharp, intellectual and loves all life equally be it monster or human. As a young girl, she found an abandoned Jaggi, cast out because he was too weak to help support the pack, and decided to raise him as her own pet. As her own friend. But things are changing faster than she can comprehend, and after a Rathalos and a Rathian have their eggs stolen and smashed, the wyvern pair vow to bring hell itself down on all humans, wiping them out for good. But Rose is determined to keep the peace, even if it means loosing her memories of Jagged to do it. Now taken far, far away to a land of hunters, she must learn to fit in and thrive, or become some monsters next meal. Everyone sees her as a joke, but something in her gut tells her she is there for something more.
Beanie is a Palico who dreams of becoming a hunter. Red is a Palamute that has seen his master die by the claws of a Rathalos, and will never forget the pain. Within Kamura Village, they are forced together, and now they must learn how to live with each other's polar opposite differences and beliefs. But when Red hears of a brewing war that, if done right, has the potential to wipe out all monsters in existence, he's all in. He just has to figure out what his role is to best fit the cause. It doesn't take long for Beanie to become conflicted. Wait, where's Red? Where did he go? She must find him before the war reaches its peak, and monsters and humans are forced to fight to the death.
"Creatures of the night exist. Beasts roam the earth, crawling out of cold dirt from the depths of hell..."
Where the Supernatural roam they are Hunted, the battle of survival is tricky and rarely won by Hunter or Monster alike. The underworld is a horrifying world to live in, dangerous and unpredictable. Hunters die left, right, and center every day for the unaware public of the cities they protect. Gory and gruesome deaths, taken by ripping claws, tearing teeth, and ravenous creatures.
Valli Myers lives in this world; and made a living out of supporting Hunters.
"...The grapevine is talkin' about a Hunter Bed n' Breakfast."
"A place for Hunters to have a good bed and meal, with a little housework and cheap prices."..."
Kane Storm - a rugged Hunter - was suspicious about the location. Didn't trust what he was told, or saw. However, he soon finds himself drawn into Valli's life by outside forces of Evil and a game of Fates.
"They are searching desperately. For what, only they know..."
Growing attached reluctantly to Valli.
"How long you gonna pretend you don't wanna live?"
Together they learn to trust and defend each other, battling through emotional and physical combats.
But for what? Why are they fighting? They don't know.
Rumors are spreading about Valli, lighting a mystery of why and how he got a target on his back.
"'They're planning, Valli. Something is happening.'..."
Solving this mystery takes time, and courage Valli isn't certain he has left. He is at a fatal disadvantage
In a world as deadly and savage as theirs, there is no time to hesitate on emotions and risks; no time to overthink.
Driving into the deep end is often the answer - you just have to take the risk and trust your instincts, and your partner.
Especially in the Void...
