Lyric the Unknown

Jim Maher

Lyric Bell only hates one thing in this world: her violin. Practicing makes her skin crawl, and sometimes just looking at the stringed beast is enough to send her running. When we learn to embrace the challenges in life, we can accomplish great things. Lyric learns this the hard way when she watches the world end around her. She wakes up over fifty years later, an alien in a new world, where people are forced to live in the highest reaches of the skyscrapers we built. The planet below is covered in a sea of black, home to horrible creatures known as Creepers. Lyric is forced to pick up her violin and use its beautiful music to save her strange new world.

Lyric, a reluctant violinist, is transported by an eerie black cocoon into a strange world 50 years into the future with bewildering rules. In this new world, where Creepers run rampant in the darkness beneath city limits, Lyric’s ability to make music is treasured by the remaining population, but also feared at the same time by those in power.
