Comments: A team of hunters is battling a monster. The monster is all in black but still very well situated so you can see it and know it is an evil creature.
One of the White Masks is called Bait. There is interaction between Scarlet, Blue, and White Masks as they plan to kill a monster. Bait is the bait to lure it in.
There are other Masks to Azure, Black, Silver, and even one Gold. There is Alabaster as well. They draw from all the other Houses to fill their ranks. An explanation of the Alabaster Masks is given yet it is hard to follow.
We see Bait has a totem which is weird looking. Bait when he first came to the order was already one strange boy. With his handicap, you would think being bait for monsters would be something he could not do. Bait does not say a word about this whole issue and he does not have to. He knows what his job is and he is ready for it.
The comic did not have a character who was the focus of it.
The monster fighting at the start of the issue is the hi-lite of the issue. The monster is illustrated as a nightmare that come to life.
