Game of Thrones meets Lovecraft. Massive world-building and and cast of characters, but dark and surreal. It's a lot. Sometimes I struggle to follow everything, but the story is intriguing, the art is beautiful, and the characters - the characters are are so unique and given such backgrounds that you could take any one of them and put them in their own story.
Graphic: Body horror, Death, and Blood
Moderate: Violence, Murder, and Injury/Injury detail
