Silverwood Public:

Home to liars, thieves, and worst of all โ€ฆ

the Scorpion Kings.

I was the Queen at my old school.

Born into wealth and power.

Now, thanks to my familyโ€™s deceit, Iโ€™m a pariah and a target.

Iโ€™ve got no friends. No parents. No money. And no fucks left to give.

If the Scorpion Kings want to damage the new outcast of Silverwood, theyโ€™ll soon learn that anyone can be a killer

if you give them the right incentive.
