Ethenia, a city full of promise, opportunity, and comfort. That is, if you are a Mint. If not, welcome to a life of continuous labor and discrimination, the scar you were given as a child assuring your life will never change... at least not for the better. Casper knows this tragedy all too well, although some may say he has it worse. His golden hair, a characteristic of only the Mints, and the symbol of the lowest class burned under his eye results in rejection from every group. Betrayed by his family, religion, and occasionally his mind, Casper had absolutely no choice but to take up the only job offered to him. Now he must battle his own conscience as the tasks grow harder and darker, forcing him to harm the only people who accepted him.
