The Black Raven Syndicate is the most prolific crime organization in Florain. Spies, assassins, and thieves stalk the streets, all on the hunt for their next conquest. Among them is the infamous Silver Tongue, Theo Thorne, a thief with a lengthy reputation that leaves him a hunted, though uncatchable, man.
When someone close to him is murdered and his tavern -- his home -- becomes endangered, Theo is recruited by the shadowy Kaegen Fen, a high-ranking Syndicate Talon, to commit the most dangerous heist imaginable: break into a vault in an unbroachable military citadel and steal a priceless treasure. In return, Kaegen will fulfil Theo's one desire: to regain his home.
