Wisteria is an orphan girl living in a corner of the British Empire in the late 19th century. His life is bleak and dreary until he meets Marbas, a powerful but equally lonely, hairy-looking immortal who is being pursued by hunters. Together, Wisteria and Marbas travel the empire populated by humans and humanoid beasts in search of a place where they can live together in peace.
