Burned by a Paper Sun |S1| Ep. 3

Season 1, Ep. 3
•

Butterfly Darkly (start at: 1:50)


After several years, Jamie Grudger - a serial killer of some notoriety - was captured and interred for his heinous crimes. However, the bizarre murderer's ominous words still echoed in the head of Detective Harry Mills, the man who brought the killer to justice. Now, events have brought the detective back to that haunting case and, perhaps, to places far worse.


Stillborn (Starts at: 17:50)


Exploring the mess of her deceased grandfather's attic, Lindsey Jacobs happened upon her late elder's journal. While much of it was filled with the mundane on-goings of his daily life, she stumbled upon a strange and morose account concerning a certain tragic citizen of Mercy Ridge. The story only spanned the life of a couple of pages and was peculiarly never mentioned again anywhere in the rest of the journal.

    The small city of Distoria appeared directly after the Great Darkness of 1999. It is nearly the exact twin of the much older Common Castle, the two lying separated by only a small stretch of woods. Distoria differs from its sibling by means of a far more aged appearance and a sickly aesthetic that informs it with no small amount of menace.An artist, with no choices left to him, visits in hope that the dark myths attributed to the towns are true.Follow us on Twitter at @maeltopiaWant to learn more about the world of Burned by a Paper Sun?
