A bounty hunter known only as “The Stranger” carries a mysterious cargo across the country of Deira. Forced to weather a
storm in a remote mountain tavern, he quickly finds himself in a struggle for survival and search for truth among a disparate group of characters, each with their own agendas and secrets to hide.

Before the night is over, shocking connections to the heroes and villains the world knew seventeen years prior are uncovered, and the Stranger is forced to choose between self-preservation and the role of protector he’s taken for the young and innocent.
