Gli Auguri, dittatori un tempo considerati alla stregua degli dèi, furono rovesciati e spazzati via durante il conflitto, misteriosamente abbandonati dai loro stessi poteri tanto temuti.

Wenn man in Fill City 1 lebt und schuftet, gewöhnt man sich an den Gestank. Wir nennen ihn den Ewigen Mief. Aber hin und wieder, wenn an einem Frühlingstag eine Brise weht, verzieht er sich ein wenig und wir erinnern uns daran, dass es da draußen noch etwas anderes gibt. Die meisten Filler träumen allerhöchstens davon, die Mauern zu überwinden und auf dem Festland zu leben. Aber mein Traum? Der ist ein bisschen größer. Ich fliege zum Mars.

In the royal city of Camarria, a street urchin named Chessie lives by her wits, always attended by her two faithful friends, Red and Scar. What no one realizes is that the “friends” are really echoes, creatures that look exactly like their originals but who possess no volition of their own. Echoes normally are only born to high nobles, and Chessie doesn’t want anyone to start asking questions about her past. So she’s developed the ability to move between bodies so rapidly that she can maintain the illusion that she and Red and Scar are three separate people.

Lady Elyssa despises her echoes - the creatures who look just like her and copy her every move. But it’s only the echoes that mark her as a high noble, someone elite enough to marry the king’s youngest son, Jordan. She can’t get rid of the echoes, so instead she amuses herself by torturing them when no one is looking. But there’s something Elyssa doesn’t know: Her casual cruelty has brought one of the echoes to life. And this echo, Hope, is learning to think and speak and act on her own.

Then, disaster strikes on the road when they come under attack.
