No God of Mercy

A local legend claims the Mercy Crossroads, connecting Last Pine to the nearby city of Rust Valley, are a place where the veil between our world and the Void runs thin. Those looking for fame and fortune have, according to tradition, long used those crossroads as a meeting place with the devil.

They make the usual bargain: unearthly musical talent in exchange for their immortal soul.

Rumors swirl that Remi Mora, an ‘indie legend’ musician of the Iron County music scene turned surprise international superstar, was one such musician who took that devil’s bargain to make it big. After years of traveling the world, she booked a hometown gig at Last Pine to wind down her latest tour. Hours before she was scheduled to go on-stage at the Prohibition Lounge, a local music venue, she mysteriously vanished.

An aging rock star, a missing pop star, and a deal with the devil at the crossroads. A booklet hunt for Bump in the Dark, submitted for the Cold Iron Blues jam. Remember industry rule no. 4080, practice your G-Major chords, and uncover the true source behind a century old urban legend.
