It follows Nicole Masterman, an [[Our Elves Are Better|elf]] and recent college graduate, who lives in a fictional town in Virginia with her close friend, Ian, and a small dog named Nummy Muffin Coocolbutter.
 
''TWIYEH'' borrows its characters and some of its concepts from Kytri's first webcomic, ''The Rift'', an [[Orphaned Series]] about a gang of bounty hunters. ''The Rift'' was ended in February 2010 due to lack of interest, but ''TWIYEH'' was started a few months later in May 2010.
