In a decaying industrial city known only as "The Sprawl," soot stains the sky and the sun is rarely seen. Elara, a dutiful and repressed young librarian, spends her life caring for her dying father and keeping her head down. Her mundane life is interrupted when she discovers a century-old diary in the archives detailing a "plague of anemia" that once wiped out the city’s workforce. Simultaneously, the reclusive foreign industrialist Count Orlok arrives to reopen the abandoned steel mill, promising economic salvation. However, Orlok is not just a capitalist; he is an ancient parasite. He doesn't just drink blood; he feeds on the collective life force and misery of the city. As a mysterious wasting disease begins to claim the workers, Elara is drawn into Orlok’s orbit. He is fascinated by her "goodness" and purity, not to destroy it, but to corrupt it. Elara finds herself in a race to save her city, while fighting a terrifying, intoxicating attraction to the creature who promises to liberate her from her life of servitude.
