A young thief on a mission. A kidnapped girl with a secret. Stumbling on her in a raid, he vows to take her home. Tempted by a hefty reward, will he keep his promise once he discovers the truth?Era yearns to be a master thief. Mentored from a young age to be the best, all he wants is to surpass his father’s infamy as the greatest ever in the business. When he learns about a train carrying precious cargo, he knows it’s the moment he’s been waiting for.

Di is the daughter of a wealthy mayor. Studying at the prestigious Three Pillars Academy, she’s horrified when the military arrives to take her by force to the capital. Have they discovered her hidden talent for air shaping, one that exceeds even that of the masters?

When Era makes his daring raid, his hopes for treasure are dashed when all he finds is Di on board. Dreaming of an easy reward for returning the mayor’s daughter, he promises to help Di get safely home, not knowing that she harbors a secret that could mean his demise.

With bounty hunters and elemental mercenaries relentlessly hunting them, the seemingly simple task of returning Di to her father grows bleak. When pressed for the truth, her answers ring hollow - especially after her elemental talents are revealed. As Era fights foe after foe with his untrained earth shaping skills, the temptation to simply collect the reward on Di’s head sparks an inner conflict between his conscience and the future he’s always wanted.
