Prologue

Things are much different. A special few people have their very own Monsters, and their zodiac sign decides which Monster they get. Not everyone gets a Monster; those who don't have one live in constant fear. Those who do have Monsters are then taught to work for the government and find those monsters that roam free in normal society.
But, alas, that was nice while it lasted.
In Tess Jrace's generation, it's normal for things to not make sense. Switching from the side of the battle she's on to the other side with her partner Luke Con, she learns that war is a very complicated thing, and that people are hard to trust, especially when power is at play.
