7 parts Ongoing MatureIn a realm divided by the four Kingdoms of Cards-Hearts, Spades, Diamonds, and Clubs-power, passion, and peril intertwine. Each kingdom, ruled by its unique monarch, thrives in a delicate balance. But when the Void-a creeping, all-consuming darkness-threatens to unmake the very fabric of Wonderland, the kingdoms must confront their shared destiny.
Alexi, a human outsider who has stumbled into this world, struggles to find their place amidst its strange and enchanting landscapes. Genderfluid and navigating their own identity, Alexi is drawn into the politics and mysteries of the kingdoms, their humanity both a strength and a vulnerability in this magical world.
Hector, the fiery prince of the Kingdom of Hearts, feels the weight of expectation and duty within the cold, pristine walls of his palace. Cyrus, an enigmatic figure from the Kingdom of Spades, is a master of strategy with a sharp wit and an unyielding spirit. Together, the three form an unlikely bond, defying the conventions of their worlds.
As the Void spreads, consuming dreams and reshaping reality, its sinister presence reveals a horrifying truth: that you don't get to know quite yet. When dreams become weapons and the two worlds face collapse, Alexi, Hector, and Cyrus embark on a perilous journey to uncover the source of the Void and find a way to stop it.
With Wonderland teetering on the edge of destruction, Alexi, Hector, and Cyrus must face impossible odds, navigate political intrigue, confront their deepest fears, and, possibly most terrifyingly, face themselves. Can love and unity triumph over darkness, or will the Void consume everything?
Shadows in the Deck is a tale of magic, identity, love, and the resilience of the human (and inhuman) spirit in the face of annihilation.
