Heroes. Villains. Right. Wrong. Good. Evil. The line between it all might not be as black or white as they once thought. Micah Pierce and Matthew Rivers were raised by mercenaries in a city divided by heroes and villains. Though their lives were controlled by a cold-hearted criminal, they found solace and safety in their loyalty to one another, as friends and brothers-in-arms. But disaster struck, and they were separated. Now, each believing the other dead, they must choose their paths and their allies, for danger lurks on the horizon and they cannot face it alone. Though their paths may seem to diverge, their futures are bound by the bond they once shared. And when they once again cross paths? They'll have to pray that they're prepared for what comes their way.
