  DOMINO (def.): A girl with blue hair and a demon in her mind.

  CAIN (def.): A stone giant on the brink of exploding.

  MADAM KARINA (def.): A woman who demands obedience.

  WILSON (def.): The one who will destroy them all.

  When Madam Karina discovers Domino in an alleyway, she offers her a position inside her home for entertainers in secluded West Texas. Left with few alternatives and an agenda of her own, Domino accepts. It isn’t long before she is fighting her way up the ranks to gain the madam’s approval.

But then, Madam Karina doesn’t know about the person living inside Domino’s mind. Madam Karina doesn’t know about Wilson.
