Background story: Every 41 years the ruling family of Hipaeron-Drie is obliged to send their eldest daughter on the Masked Hunt. In a ritual called the Sighting she receives the Wings of the Hawk, which she cannot remove until the hunt is complete. Together with her Master of the Hunt she determines her prey through use of the Imperial Tarot and gathers a hunting party. Once set loose, the hunt cannot end before the prey has been caught, or the hunting party has been destroyed.
