Last Motley

Magic comes in many colors...
Motleys. Candy-colored creatures with dark powers to drain the souls of men. That's what Roderick always thought. Until he met one. Now he's not so sure. But with seemingly everyone in the province hunting the motley down, he must quickly decide which side he's on.
Is the motley the living nightmare the legends say? Or just a child cursed by magic? Should Roderick save him from an awful fate, or turn him in? Either way, it seems like everyone wants to make sure that this is indeed the last motley.
