NEW THRILL: PORTALS & BLACK GOO // Night Shift, part three

London, 2023. Amongst the regular people living in the capital, there are also denizens of the dark — creatures of myth and legend that have embedded themselves in society. Vampires, werewolves, demons — they’re part of the population now (and more often than not are the victims of prejudice and discrimination). They also have their own particular diets, which is where Devouroo comes in…
