Ed has always had some sort of command and communion with the rats where he lives, but when they warn him of impending danger, he heads down into the sewers to see what the threat is. After encountering a powerful looking rat-man clad in strange symbols, Ed figured he'd found the monster and the pair began bristling and posturing to fight... But it looks like Ed may have misinterpreted what they were warning him about, and the duo are about to have a much larger problem on their hands.
