A Modern Myth

"Either kill me.... or just watch me get back up again"

A dark dystopian tale of a lost boy searching for the truth and fighting for a life.

Eighteen-year-old Nickolai is the only living elf in The Compound, a prison disguised as a training and reform facility. He has never stepped foot outside the walls, nor has he experienced kindness or compassion--only the cruel and unrelenting ways of the only home he's ever known.

Tormented since birth and trained to be a rage-induced killing machine, Nickolai is fuelled by anger. Being as persistent as he is, it doesn't take Nickolai long to realize that he is being used--that everything he's ever known is a lie.

He becomes determined to expose the people behind this scheme and free those clasped to its chains. Eager to find a life and who he truly is, and feel alive for once in his life.
