What links all mankind? Is it the blood the runs through us? Is it the mana that all creatures generate. Or is it the bonds of family and business?

At the center of the tale. Drew, the young son of a bandit tribe leader, awakens to find he now leads them. He also possess something that he knows can't possibly belong to him. In fact it likely doesn't even belong to this world, but he will use it to his fullest ability if it can protect the ones closest to him.
