Living on the streets and dying of starvation, Echo the Crat - a multitalented creature resembling a cat - is compelled to sign a contract with Ghoolion the Alchemaster. This document gives Ghoolion the right to kill Echo at the next full moon and render him down for his fat, with which he hopes to brew a concoction that will make him immortal.
