One favor, one journey, one game-changing weapon.
    With tensions between humans and mystical creatures at an all-time high, going on a journey for rare blood was never going to be good.
    Especially when Vaughn knows he's the only one who can turn it into a weapon.
    As the journey continues, doubts soon begin to grow - between Vaughn and his companion, his strict manager from work; doubts about the past his family had warned him of; and finally, about the true reason behind this journey.
    Why exactly did the requester want this blood? 
    Do they know how dangerous it can be? And if they do, what are they planning to do with it?
