A 16-year-old boy living in Philidelphia with anger management issues named Jake Thorne is lying on an underpass, homeless, looking at the night sky when it suddenly begins to contort and rip open allowing a sword cursed by the gods to fall from the sky nearly killing him. The sword has only three letters written on it "Tyr" so, naturally Jake did as any homeless guy would and brought it to his local pawn shop, but unbeknownst to him this sword means a lot more than a few hundred bucks to a certain someone, and that someone is most definitely coming back for it.
