Once a champion, Lincoln spent the last few years trying to drink himself to death on a ramshackle farm, convinced that the best years of his life were behind him. Then one morning, he wakes up in a cage in a place nothing like home. Taken in by a guild of treasure hunters and thieves, nobody mistakes him for a hero, He is just another man trying to survive. But every expedition uncovers civilizations buried by time and secrets that powerful people would rather keep forgotten. Lincoln is thrown into a world where "monsters" raise families and "nobility" approves blood sacrifices. He must reshape himself to survive this new world, but survival will take much more than strength alone. The longer Lincoln survives, the harder it becomes to see who the true monsters are.
