Born in the underground prison beneath Nox, Ember was sent to live in the Demon District where she would be among her own kind. Kept in a cage her entire life, the demoness burns to get revenge on the demon lord who is responsible for her slavery. After her master is assassinated, she gains her freedom and begins to hunt Raum down.Raum's search for a suitable partner isn't going well. A hideous hell spawn keeps slaughtering the women he approaches. The Demon Guild Master will need to find a way to eliminate the wily minion before he will be able to become bonded to a powerful and dangerous female.As she stalks her target, Ember becomes aware of the intrigues and powerplays that are going on within the City of Night. She already knows the Immortal Triumvirate are lousy rulers, but they could very well be just as malevolent as her own kind. Raum might not be the only one who needs to be eradicated, but taking down the creators of Nox is a task that's beyond her abilities. If she had more power, she would stand a better chance, but that would entail joining forces with the evilest being in the entire city.
