Beam is a murderer and rogue who lives by the age-old rules of "Finders, keepers". He measures the worth of the world's citizens less by the character of their hearts than the gold he can pick from their pockets. But when he receives a mysterious message from his long dead mother, his carefully constructed rules of priority are changed forever. Wrapped within that message is an ancient map leading him far south to the reservations of the Vaemyn, a race of savages forcefully sequestered from the world by the civilized Allied Nations. Once there, he searches through a burial ground the size of a small city where he finds an ancient artifact called the Blood Caeyl, a rare red crystal carved in the image of a sensuous eye that he believes will make him rich beyond his dreams. The artifact begins to change Beam, awakening the memories of a thousand lifetimes, and with those memories, the powers of a god.
