Once upon a time…

…there was a witchy apprentice called Cereza, who dreamed of becoming strong and confident.

One day, with stuffed toy in hand, she ventured into the forbidden Avalon Forest in the hopes of saving her imprisoned mother.

It’s said that these winding, whimsical woods have a taste for lost witches…

What sinister surprises await within?

Cereza

Before she became known as “Bayonetta”, this witch-in-training was a bit on the timid side. Can she summon up the courage to overcome this treacherous forest?

Cheshire

The rough-and-tumble demon that inhabits Cereza’s stuffed cat toy. He begrudgingly aids the young witch’s quest in the hopes of finding a way back to Inferno.
