Fallen Souls

Something's brewing beneath downtown Portland, Oregon.



It's been a few years since part of the Lapsi curse was broken, giving Lapsi a chance at community for the first time. While many have yet to embrace this new part of eternity, Cassandra from Troy is determined to recreate the city she lost millennia ago.



Since losing his soul, Jeb lives in seclusion, pilfering streaming services from his neighbors, and watching humanity through his television.

But one night his curiosity leads him face-to-face with a dark conspiracy in Portland. He's questioned by Cassandra herself, then thrown-literally-into moving traffic, resulting in one dead Uber driver, and an injured bystander named Hannah performing useless CPR on an unconscious Jeb.



Cassandra's distraction leads Jeb and-consequently, Hannah-even deeper into her plot to take Portland, and they barely escape with their lives. Now Hannah's life is entwined with Jeb's, and he has no choice but to house her until he can figure out how to stop Cassandra, or-more likely-how to avoid getting further involved. Without his soul, he can't bring himself to care. But Hannah, as inconsequential as she may be, has enough soul for the both of them.

How does he fight a plan to take an entire city, though, with no soul, no friends, and only Hannah covering his back? And why does Cassandra seem to be fascinated by Jeb, but even more so by Hannah?
