4 parts Ongoing Ryn always thought her life in the Black Forest would be ordinary, helping her parents craft intricate clocks in their quiet cottage. But at 19, she's restless, longing for more than the life laid out before her. After a heated argument with her father, she storms into the dark and imposing forest, unaware her world is about to change forever.
When she returns home, Ryn finds her parents' workshop destroyed and a horrifying creature-a Blutbad-standing over their bloodstained remains. Her encounter with the beast unlocks something deep within her: the ability to see these creatures for what they truly are. Shaken but determined, she vows to uncover the truth behind her parents' deaths and find the monster responsible.
Her investigation leads her to the depths of the forest and into a shadowy world of Wesen-mythical beings hiding in plain sight. Along the way, Ryn encounters a mysterious stranger who reveals secrets about her newfound abilities. As she learns to wield her powers, she discovers that the path of a Grimm is both a gift and a curse.
With danger lurking at every turn, Ryn must navigate this treacherous world, face her fears, and embrace her destiny as the first of her kind. But the more she uncovers, the more she realizes the cost of vengeance might be higher than she ever imagined.
