Garrett, a master thief who has been away from his hometown for a long time, returns to the City and finds it ruled over by a tyrant known as the Baron. While the City is infested by a plague and the rich continue to live in good fortune, Garrett plans to change or exploit the status quo.
The City has changed, the balance has shifted, all because men in robes had to tamper with forces they could not fully understand.
Garrett is no saviour, but he may be forced to step into the light before the City succumbs to darkness.
