His little smile

Before he was Asmodeus Koshkin, 4 year old Asmodeus Volkov is torn from his family after an innocent act is mistaken for something sinister.

Sold into child labour, he is passed from stranger to stranger until he is eventually abandoned on the streets of StoneVille.

Alone and far from home, Asmodeus finds an unlikely guardian in Elijah, a struggling man who sees a frightened child beneath the strange smile.

This is the story of the childhood that shaped Asmodeus into the boy everyone would eventually come to know.
