The series mostly involves the group of spirits in their attempts to head off a supernatural menace known as The Black Tezcatlipoca, a thing somewhere between a semi-sentient black ooze and a consumptive plague. The Ick(as it is known more informally) had been defeated previously when the area's protector spirit (A raven-woman known as Murder), and a group of monkey-spirit musicians gathered together against it, Murder sacrificing her life, while the monkeys sacrificed their sight, hearing and voice respectively in a mystical pact. Now the ick has returned and the spirits have to figure out why, as well as how to remove it from the residents of local villages.
