Chokeville

Welcome to Fort Hook, a lawless port city teeming with gangsters and smugglers and dipshits. Down near the bottom of the ladder is Batya, who’s worked as muscle-for-hire since she was a little girl.

Last month, she tried to go straight by running a very mediocre food truck. That went real bad real fast, and she’s currently on the run from the local kneecappers. Desperate and broke, she’s forced to team up with her estranged (and rude) sister Mina for a week of increasingly hairy courier jobs.

Now all that stands between Batya and her payday is a pirate queen, a stupidly sharp sword, a lonesome deer demon, a talking severed hand, and a lifetime of old grudges and bad ideas. But I’m sure it’ll work out fine.
