Before long they begin to uncover unsettling details about Abbotsford’s past,

## CHARACTERS
Mei
Put your hand on these stones. Can you feel their calming warmth?
For obscure reasons Mei doesn’t go to school. She can often be found wandering
around the giant megaliths that where erected on the island during the late
Neolithic. Recently she’s been suffering from disturbing nightmares about her
little brother.
Rika
The Leviathan must be melancholy, coiling all alone through pitch black
depths.
Descending from a long line of reformed preachers, Rika is well grounded both
socially and spiritually. Lately, however, she has become captivated by an
intense longing for the sea. Her father is the leader of the secretive Kuyper
faction in the Abbotsford city council.
Ina
Scandal, crime, corruption — small town politics are a cesspool of human
depravity.
Ina is strong headed and determined. Having recently taken over as editor in
chief of the Sunday Abbot, Ina is dedicated to turn the nameless tabloid into
a hallmark of investigative journalism. Soon however, her inquiry into local
political affairs stirs up a force that is better left untouched.
