What would you do to keep your innocence intact while trapped in a world of depravity? That is a question Dora has asked herself for two years now. Living in the Dreadlands is hard.

At that point, most people would give up. Not Dora. She refuses to let the Dreadlands beat her down. Even when confronted by the horrors she herself is an accomplice to. But when ordered to deliver a mysterious slave to the infamous City of Slaves, Dora has to make a choice; let the truth set her free, or condemn another soul to a fate worse than death.
