Plot:The City Must Survive

"I see a tower of bone upon which they rise To the void below they will fall to no surprise And call upon the forces dark and sinister that thrive I say unto ye O Dead, the city must survive." ~ Oracular Hymn, Handmaiden of Fate. Summary The City of Prospect has long since lost the bastion of security offered by the Hierarchy and it's legions. Left to fend to their own devices, the restless dead have struggled against their shadows and the shadow-eaten that dog the shadows of every alley and corner. There is of course another story, another story that coincides with this frontier. Because at times the shadows that lurk in those corners move with purpose, and the shadow-eaten who gather do so with intention. Is Prospect as lost as some might expect? Or is there more sinister works that linger in the dark?
