Upon his eighteenth birthday, Michael, a closet vorarephile, receives a mysterious letter at midnight. The letter is vague and disturbing, claiming the sender knows all about Michael and their deepest desires, and asks them to leave the life they know behind, and meet them in an open field within the time limit. Skeptical, Michael decides to at least check it out.

Once in the field, he meets his crush, Rachael, and his best friend Matthias, as well as other people from around the area. The sorceress Slate, the sender of the letters to everyone who arrives in the field, brings the latter to her voracious haven, an island spanning worlds and dimensions. Said island is a sanctuary for predator's and prey alike, reality a joke, magic abundant, all reasoning an afterthought.

There is but one catch to experiencing all Slate's island has to offer. Once per night, one of the twelve guests must pay tribute to her, letting her consume them. Once they are devoured, they never return.

Is this truly a haven? Or is there really a price for this paradise?

Hah, so far no price for the paradise, other than to get what they wanted anyway, to become swallowed whole. Wouldn't that have been fun? Such a reality. To tell you the truth, I am a bit jealous, her promising them they won't be harmed, and she gets to eat them over and over. Sounds like my kind of paradise!

There is a price, and it's not just leaving everything behind. But I agree, it would be a true paradise. But if the reality of it ever came around, you gotta think if you'd actually follow through with such an offer.
