Truth‘s Advocate

TRUTH IS A HEAVY SHROUD-AND FOR MISS RIKU, IT IS CRUSHING HER BONES. WAKING FROM A FEVERISH DOZE, RIKU FINDS HER REALITY FRACTURED. THE MEMORY OF A COLD TOUCH LINGERS ON HER SKIN LIKE A STAIN, BUT THE TRUE TERROR IS SAITO-A BLACKMAILER WHOSE CALM, FORMAL DEMEANOR IS MORE FRIGHTENING THAN ANY OUTWARD AGGRESSION. HE DOES NOT SEEK HER RUIN. HE SEEKS HER EVOLUTION. FROM THE OPULENT PENTHOUSES OF TOKYO TO A HIGH-STAKES DINNER WITH TWELVE SHADOWY GUESTS, THE DEBT IS PAID IN BLOOD AND HIGH STRANGENESS. RIKU IS THRUST INTO A STRANGE WORLD OF HIGH FINANCE, FORCED INTO A VERBAL BATTLE AGAINST THREE DEMANDING QUEENS WHO RULE THE MODERN LANDSCAPE. AS WHITE GHOSTLY MISTS SWIRL THROUGH THE HALLS OF POWER, SHE DISCOVERS THAT THE HAND OF GOD PLAYS A VIOLENT PART IN THE AFFAIRS OF MEN. THE ENVIRONMENT IS PRESSURIZED. RED ORBS PULSE OVER LEGAL CONTRACTS WITH A HEARTBEAT RHYTHM. WOVEN TAPESTRIES OF TIGERS AND BUFFALO WATCH FROM THE SHADOWS, WHILE AN ANCIENT SERPENT BEGINS TO STIR WITHIN THE SILK. THE NIGHTMARES OF HER RESTLESS SLEEP HAVE BECOME THE PREMONITIONS OF HER NEW REALITY. THE SCRIPT IS SEALED. THE CONTRACT IS SIGNED. THE JOURNEY INTO THE INFINITE HIVE HAS BEGUN. "TRUTH‘S ADVOCATE" IS A VISCERAL DESCENT INTO THE PRIMAL LOGIC OF SURVIVAL. IT IS A SUPERNATURAL METAPHYSICAL THRILLER THAT DEMANDS YOU QUESTION THE FIRMAMENT BENEATH YOUR FEET. RIKU MUST NAVIGATE A LABYRINTH OF ANCESTRAL SECRETS AND UNSEEN POWERS. WILL SHE SURVIVE THE TRANSFORMATION INTO THE QUEEN MONSTER? OR WILL THE COILS OF THE SERPENT TAKE HER FIRST?
