Born out of wedlock and shunned by society, Alma learned to make her peace with solitude, so long as she had her mother by her side.

In a desperate exchange for her mother’s medicine, Alma agrees to sacrifice her left arm to the Beast in a ceremony that will bind her forever to the House and its deity.
