Year 1345; London.
Young James was the role model every boy wished to be . He was the head priest's son, he followed in his footsteps. At 18 James preached often and perhaps even became a priest himself. But everyone knew that James would grow to be proud and noble and respected.

Lord forbid that everything that James stood for would be ruined, and Lord forbid that nothing good came out of it.

Year 1347; London.
James is among the countless victims of the outbreak of plague.
His father calls upon a doctor in his final moments, something strange and shifty, something spiritual.
Right as death calls, life calls, and nothing for James is ever going to be the same as long as he remains.
