"Everything kills, animals, plants, fungi, viruses, bacteria. Even the elements: fire, water, wind, lightning. Nature is full of death. Yet we, humans, pretend we’re above it. That we shouldn’t kill. That we’re different. We’re not. We shouldn’t be." -Alexa May Alexa’s parents died when she was young, leaving her orphaned — but her exceptional talent for sleight of hand and passion for art soon caught the attention of a notorious crime lord. Over a decade later, she’s become a daredevil thief, one who would sooner force reality to bend itself to her will rather than accept defeat. Her life of crime places her in the crosshairs of someone who can kill with a single touch, but it’s her love of art that offers her a lifeline — the Domain of Artistic Creation: a magic entirely her own, governed by strict rules yet limited only by the bounds of her imagination. As power shifts, both friends and allies are put to the test. The lines begin to blur and Alexa will need to figure out who her real enemies are. Come watch Alexa battle literal demons — and those who merely feign at such titles. This story weaves horror, adventure, whimsy, comedy, and tragedy, because life is never just one thing. And for Alexa, life can be anything she can dream up, if she can survive.
