Synopsis
Mask of Chaos
On the masked world, the law is the deepest secret.
Mike was apprehensive about being stranded on Tome. But the peaceful city and the exquisite masks everyone wore somehow allayed his fears. The sculptured expressions of tranquility and the ghostly, frail smiles lulled him into serenity.
He soon compared his plight on Tome to a sojourn in Eden--until Mike met a flame-haired woman with an apple. She taught him to see the horror behind the masks, to look beyond what people and things "seem" to be.
But then again, he wasn't what he seemed to be. He didn't need a mask. He was a mask.
