Plot Summary
After seeing his parents and sister being mutilated by demons, Grubbs is in shock by what he has seen- a crocodile-headed dog, a hell child and the Demon Master, Lord Loss.

Police ask Grubbs who killed his family, he told them demons did it but the police wont believe him. Grubbs is then put into a hospital for the clinically insane where he can be treated. Nobody believed Grubbs, and so he didn't think the doctors could ever help him.

Until the day his Fathers brother, Dervish Grady comes to see him in hospital. He showed Grubbs 3 pictures of the Demons that attacked him. He asked if he knew them or had seen them, he had. During the short visit, Dervish told Grubbs he would have to lie and pretend the treatment was helping him so he could escape and learn more about his family's murders and blood-soaked history.

The Poem - Lord Loss
Lord Loss sows all the sorrows of the world Lord Loss seeds the grif-starched trees,

In the center of the web, lowly Lord Loss bows his head,

Mangled hands, naked eyes Fangled snaked his soul line Curled inside like textured sin Bloody, curdled sheets for skin,

In the center of the web, vile Lord Loss torments the dead,

Over strands of red, Lord Loss crawls Dispensing pain, despising al Shuns friends, nurtures foes Ravages hope, breeds woe Drinks moons, devours suns Twirls his thumb till the reaper comes,

In the center of the web, lush Lord Loss is all that's left.
