Gwen had it all for a sixteen-year-old girl. She went to a good school, her family did well for themselves, and she had great friends. That was until a tragedy pulled her onto a path which she never could have dreamed existed. Now she was heading into parts unknown, heading far away from her home, accompanied only by a knight and two friends. Dark roads and shady cars, all while running from something. Always behind her, the darkness followed, even as she ran towards it.
