A place sealed off from everyone else in the kingdom. A place where the inhabitants are considered untouchables.

A place for children born out of wedlock, babies with missing appendages, people who had gone mad, blind, deaf or mute, and everyone else that had been banished from the kingdom because of their abnormalities. 

In this place lived a beautiful boy named Taemin, banished from the kingdom because he was born to an adulterer. He had known no family ever since he was born, and had learned to fend for himself once he was old enough to live alone. Feeding from scraps and little fruit, living in a small cottage he made by himself, he learned to survive in the city of the damned.

However, what would happen if the prince of the kingdom, tired and wounded from combat, came stumbling into his cottage?
