Viridius Vispanius has spent his entire life protecting the emperor of Wolfryia. A man of integrity, honor, and purpose until one fateful day, his family and friends turn on him and assassinate the emperor. Viridius fails in his sworn duty and as a result he is condemned to execution. He manages to escape and has been living in the Batopian wilderness for the last year pining for a way to get back to his old life.

His luck is about to change when his old friend Gius appears and makes him an offer he can't refuse. He is desperate, alone, and outnumbered with a price on his head. He will take any chance, no matter how long the odds to get his revenge. It's a dish best served cold and it has been frozen in his mind for a year. If one has no friends, one can never be betrayed is his new moto. The only question is--can a man with nothing to lose change the history of Dellos with a simple assassins knife?
