Binding is black cloth with gilt lettering on spine; 373 pages. Dj now protected inside a cover. "Ballas is a drunk and a vagrant. In his eyes there is only greed, and in his heart only bitterness. Such a man is not suited to legend. He is fit only for an unmarked grave. And there are people who seek to hasten his journey there. When a young priest saves him from a beating in the street, Ballas does not know how to react to such an act of kindness. So instead he betrays him by stealing from those who have offered him hope. What Ballas chooses to take can easily be hidden under a cloak, but it is no trinket to be sold in the market for a bowl of soup. It is an artefact that will lead an army to hunt him down, and bring the world to the edge of chaos."
