Despite living in a world half-ravaged by ravenous creatures known as the Prodigus, few interact with these hostile monsters, thanks to the borders separating civilization from the desolate, hopeless areas dubbed the "Forbidden Sectors." Only Chasers, skilled hunters with an origin as obscure as their opponents are allowed to enter the hostile sectors of the Prodigus. Little is known about the Chasers, other than their purpose and deployment: when Prodigus first wrought destruction on humanity, a call to action was eventually instated, forcing convicts and ex-convicts alike to bear and give up their children in exchange for a fresh start. Follow Jericho Baxter, a Chaser bred from a prostitute and nameless donor, who dreams of catching the infamous game King Prodigy. While navigating the bowels of hidden sectors and civilizations alike, she gains allies and enemies alike, and even a potential student.
