Description

Queen Melanthea of Echidna is a prisoner in her own palace.

Her small kingdom, a miserable cluster of barren islands, is slowly dying and her husband, Patmos, is a king with no real power or wealth.

Plagued by over a decade of grotesque miscarriages, Melanthea has failed to provide Echidna with an heir. With each loss the royal couple have grown more bitter and violent towards each other. Hopeless, Melanthea starts to fear that freedom can only be achieved through death.

Driven by grief, desperation and the isolation of her existence, Melanthea strikes a sinister bargain with Umro, a mysterious hermitess witch, but the cost of their deal will be greater than the queen could ever realize.
