For his entire life, Kaffe was always contained in the infamous 'Facility', known for rehabilitating the world's most insane individuals. Draw to the limits of his sanity, Kaffe made the decision to escape from this place for good and go to the famous, 'ReShifting Laboratory'. A place which, the one's who contained him, dreaded him escaping to. However, even from the start, things didn't go how he thought they would. Fellow resident Hana and Thyme found out about his scheme and secretly followed him, the 'Hounds' employed by the 'Facility' to catch escapees like him caught onto him a lot faster than he expected, not to mention, the outside world was a much bigger and scarier place than he could have ever anticipated.
