Her crimes she did not know, nor did she knew of her family. Her journey began when she found the portal to a different dimension, a dimension that trained half her soul to fight a force she never knew. This force, known as the Cavaliers, consists of dead souls who wanders the earth due to certain attachment whether it is money, power, addiction, or love. The only way these souls can be release is to collect living souls to complete their cycle. However, under the ruling of King Charis' lineage, the Gods forbade these Cavaliers from hunting within the protection of King Charis' supremacy. The only way to rid of a Cavalier is through qi (chi), a natural force that flows through the universe in which can be wielded into a weapon. Evelyn's journey to find the truth about herself was accompanied by Flynn, her partner in crime. Their journey develops a passion between the two, a secretive passion that neither one dares to admit. Conflict arouse when a Cavalier stumbled upon her path and confessed his attachment to her, the only reason why he could not receive his judgment day. Evelyn was left to debate upon her feelings for Flynn and this Cavalier, who had loved her unconditionally even through a millenia. She also found her reason for existence in which she now must decide whether to save her own world or the world of the basement in which lays half her soul - a world she never truly knew.

Hitler was one of the few politicians who understood that persuasion was everything, deployed to anchor an entire regime in the confections of imagery, rhetoric and dramaturgy. The Nazis pursued propaganda not just as a tool, an instrument of government, but also as the totality, the raison d'être, the medium through which power itself was exercised. Moreover, Nicholas O'Shaughnessy argues, Hitler, not Goebbels, was the prime mover in the propaganda regime of the Third Reich - its editor and first author. Under the Reich everything was a propaganda medium, a building-block of public consciousness, from typography to communiqués, to architecture, to weapons design. There were groups to initiate rumours and groups to spread graffiti. Everything could be interrogated for its propaganda potential, every surface inscribed with polemical meaning, whether an enemy city's name, an historical epic or the poster on a neighbourhood wall. But Hitler was in no sense an innovator - his ideas were always second-hand. Rather his expertise was as a packager, fashioning from the accumulated mass of icons and ideas, the historic debris, the labyrinths and byways of the German mind, a modern and brilliant political show articulated through deftly managed symbols and rituals. The Reich would have been unthinkable without propaganda - it would not have been the Reich.
