Determined to destroy the the system that shattered her life, she vows to rise through their ranks-but to defeat them, she risks becoming a monster greater than any of them.

The images in my videos are a mix of licensed stock photos, videos, and AI generated artwork. However, occasionally I will use images found online. I always seek to properly credit artists and offer a link back to their amazing work but sometimes it's hard to find the original source of the work.
