In the city of Elversult, a human-elf thief and a crippled ex-warrior find themselves pitted against the Purple Masks, the Cult of the Dragon, and other nefarious foes.
Among the dark streets of Elversult move thieves and cutthroats—and they don't like independent operators like Lhasha Moonsliver.
While on the run from the Purple Masks, she crosses paths with former White Shield mercenary Corin One-hand, whose drunken ways and injuries have not completely diminished his skills as a swordsman.
But when Lhasha hires him to be her bodyguard, hoping her gnomish mentor will restore Corin's lost arm, she gets far more than she bargained for.
Together, the unlikely duo must battle the thieves' guild, the Cult of the Dragon, and other, darker foes.
And Corin will have to remember the proud warrior he once was.
