The Eminence in Shadow

Lured by tales of its riches, Cid Kagenou joins his sister Claire on a journey to the notorious Lawless City. The area is controlled by three rulers: Yukime, the Spirit Fox; Juggernaut, the Tyrant; and Elisabeth, the sleeping Blood Queen, an ancient vampire. For Claire, hunting Elisabeth is a chance to prove her strength. But Cid has his own plans-slipping away from Claire, grabbing as much treasure as he can, and ensuring Shadow makes a dramatic entrance at just the right time. As Elisabeth’s awakening approaches, her follower Crimson sets a dangerous scheme in motion, throwing the city into chaos. When Claire’s brother goes missing, she teams up with Mary, a vampire hunter, and the two rush toward the Crimson Tower, Elisabeth’s stronghold. At the same time, Beta and a handful of Shadow Garden operatives arrive in the Lawless City. With all sides converging on the Crimson Tower, a major clash looms beneath the crimson moon.
