A city built on fire. A legend that never left.
Detroit is used to burning and rebuilding. What it isn't prepared for is the thing that walks its streets before every collapse.
When investigative reporter Elijah Carter uncovers footage of a small red figure appearing moments before a deadly fire, he dismisses it as urban legend-until the pattern repeats. Building collapses. Riots flare. Power grids fail. And whispers spread of an ancient presence tied to the city's founding.
As the annual Marche du Nain Rouge approaches, Elijah discovers a terrifying truth: the festival meant to "drive away" Detroit's curse has been feeding it instead. Beneath the city lies an old containment chamber. In the river's shadow rests a forgotten bargain. And in Elijah's blood runs the final key to breaking it.
But saving Detroit comes with a cost.
As supernatural forces collide beneath the streets and chaos erupts above, Elijah and his ally Maya must confront the entity known as the Nain Rouge-an ancient urban parasite that feeds on unrest and wears tradition like camouflage.
Because some monsters don't haunt houses.
They haunt cities.
And this one wants to stay.
