Sinopse

ItâÇÖs not the story you think you know.Do you like stories?áSo do I.áIf you have time, I have an interesting one to tell.áOur story begins somewhere in Turin, northwestern Italy.áSpecifically, Sacra di San Michele, a fortress-like abbey located at the pinnacle of Mount Pirchiriano.áThe time is the mid-14th century.áThe black plague, or the great mortality as it is sometimes called, is in full bloom across Western Europe.ááIn Sacra di San Michele, we find the three main players.áPrince Prospero Malatesta, the acting ruler of this land.áElizabeth Malatesta, his wife.áFinally, Clarinda. Like many rulers of his time, the Prince is a man of vanity.áElizabeth is a normal human, as much as you, though unfortunately, neither her marriage nor her body is healthy.áAnd Clarinda is a survivor.áCircumstances shall soon force Elizabeth out of the abbey and to near or absolute death.áYet even in death, she finds there is the life of a 'flesher.' Elizabeth may have died, but she has not forgotten Prince Prospero, sealed in his castle with so many of his friends.áElizabeth seeks revenge.áAnd among the fleshers, she has followers.You may think you have heard this story, but there is much, much more than has been told.áIn these pages, you will find the origins of the Masks of Death,áA Black Death Tale.
