But which will go wrong very quickly. Because the princess will die... Unless there is a way to keep her name alive...

Resume:

Le Marécage. Un territoire maudit, aux contours indéfinis, peuplé d'étranges créatures. Un territoire dangereusement inhospitalier, où l'on n'envoie que les pires criminels.

De quoi pousser ses nombreux ennemis à sortir de l'ombre pour une terrible traque, dans laquelle sera prise une mystérieuse aventurière masquée : Sombra...
