One The Mystery of
the Ragdoll: The Seamstress's
minions pursue Ragdoll across the twilight rooftops of Boston. Alicia
uses Olena's spell book diary to empower the garments and successfully
defeat the first wave of attackers. Unfortunately, during the course
of the fight she loses the book which is retrieved by the Seamstress'
minions and taken back to her sanctum. Ragdoll is forced to track them
into the bowels of the sorceress's lair and confront her face to face. Three As they battle, the Seamstress reveals her plan to take possession of Alicia's body as the vessel of her next incarnation as the powerful sorceress immobilizes her. The Seamstress however is unable to remove Alicia's charmed costume. The demonics leave and return with Nadine as their prisoner. Cindra threatens to kill Alicia's grandmother unless she removes the Ragdoll costume. Alicia complies, the imps take the costume, locking her away carefully as the Seamstress requires her physically unharmed. Trapped in the Seamstress' sanctum, Alicia is prepared for the ceremony, her role to be the next receptacle of the evil sorceresses' foul reincarnation. Four The ghostly manifestation of Olena appears to the captive Alicia. The spirit shows Alicia that the Seamstress has built her sanctum on a nexus gate between worlds. With Olena's guidance Alicia is able to slip from this world into that of the demonics. This strange world is a dimensional plane ruled by two warring factions, that of the Blood Knight and the CreepKing. Alica falls into the CreepKing's hands, who learning her identity decides to use her to bargain with the Seamstress. During this negotiation, the Blood Knight's forces attack the CreepKing's palace and Alicia is taken from his clutches. Dragged off by the ruthless raiders Alicia is convinced that she is doomed as she is brought before the fearsome demon lord. The Knight however, is captivated by the powerful magic of Alicia's blood and falls in love with her. Five Alica tells the Blood Knight she will only consider him as a suitor if he agrees to return her to her own world, help retrieve her costume, and protect Nadine from the Seamstress. The Knight agrees under the condition that she will return to his world once every month under specific astrological conditions to pursue a relationship with him. Alicia consents and the Knight marks and binds her to the pact. The Knight cannot pass directly into our world but sends one of his lieutenants, Lothos (who appears human) with her. The pair are transported back to the Seamstress' Sanctum` where Pins and Needles are guarding the costume. When confronted by Lothos the imps run screaming. Alicia dons the costume and Lothos leaves her an orb through which she may communicate with his master. Lothos vanishes as the imps return with the Seamstress. Six With the assistance
of the Blood Knight's orb, Ragdoll is able to fight the Seamstress and
her minions to a stand still and escape. Alicia also retrieves the spell
book and Nadine in the process. Returning home, she is able to summon
both Olena's and the Knight's help to weave a powerful spell of forgetfulness
and shielding. This cloaks the costume and removes the recent events
from the consciousness of the Seamstress and her minions. Alicia vows
to use her Ragdoll persona to keep our reality safe from further intrusion
of the demonics as well as any other supernatural dangers she might
encounter.
