This story is a sequel to Crystals & Chitin
Having left behind a past that she's not interested in sharing, DaCapo Aria moved to Las Pegasus with little more than determination and a few dozen bits.
Aspiring to become a famous vocalist, she discovers the less-than-glamorous truth about the vacation city of lights, laughter, and dreams. Sometimes those dreams become nightmares... and sometimes what fails in Pegasus stays in Pegasus, whether they like it or not.
Undaunted, the talented lounge singer must find a way to survive among the down-and-out denizens of the town built-up below the city of lights long enough to catch her big break, move out of the shadows and into the clouds, where the real stars shine.
While this is a sequel to Crystals & Chitin, it is not necessary to have read it first.
