In the late 19th century, Great Britain rules over a quarter of the world. Nobles sit in their fancy homes in comfort and luxury, while the working class slaves away at their jobs. When young Albert James Moriarty’s upper-class family adopts two lower-class orphans, the cruelty the boys experience at his family’s hands cements Albert’s hatred of the nobility he was born into. He asks the older of the two boys—who has a genius mind and a killer instinct—to help him rid the world of evil, starting with Albert’s own family!

Thompson

Also known as Thompson.

Status: Finished
Genres: Action , Horror , Supernatural

Urban legends have come to life, manifesting as phenomena called "Folklore." The mysterious Thompson Agency is dedicated to identifying and capturing these beings to minimize their harm to humanity.

Thompson agents Emma and Yuliya are assigned to a sleepy branch in the countryside. While horrific atrocities are committed by Folklore in Tokyo, our heroes clean basements and fix the locals' toilets. However, it is in Folklore's nature to appear wherever humans gather. Myths, rumors, and fairy tales enter the minds of the public, then grow into fears that manifest on the streets, in the dark, and around every corner.

When a factory owner calls upon the Thompson Agency to investigate a strange occurrence, he believes his workers are being superstitious. But Emma and Yuliya discover that something dangerous might have arrived to lick its wounds in their sleepy town—and it won't stay weak for long...
