In the chapel of a forsaken fishing village on another world's shore, the seawashed bones of old gods hang from the rafters.


When a new god drifts into the bay, the menfolk fear nothing as they reach for their spears; but capturing Her may be their last act of reckless bravado. Her very presence brings dissent and madness. Her voice threatens to tear the starving, angry community apart.

Setting a siege of relentless horror against the backdrop of brine and blood, Lure blurs the line between natural disaster and self-destruction.


Interior illustrations by Kelly Williams; cover art by Matt Blairstone.

    is the cost of patricide? How damned is one’s soul for murdering their own father? I imagine there must be a special grotto of scorching hellfire for us.

    I will tell her how I had brought the brandy to ease her husband’s pain, only to find that I was too late. Poor Gunther has expired in his sickbed. She will be shocked, and she will cry. I will pour Agnet a dram of the brandy to settle her. My arms will hold her, my words will console her in her grief.

    When the shock ebbs away, Agnet will dry her eyes and be relieved. She will even be grateful for my shoulder to cry on. I will take her gentle face in my hands and tell her that I will always be hers,

    It is unsettling how much he is obsessed with her. how much his longing for her, against the lengths she took to move away from him, only serve as a driving force to convince him that something, still, lingers.
