Wars are fought on many fronts. A battle is raging across New Colorado Protectorate with both human and demonic players. Todd and Nick Ruger are sentries with an arsenal of talents and training to combat threats from a variety of enemies. Todd and Nick are given a mission to find and stop weapons smugglers by going undercover on the riverboat, Annabelle. These aren't typical arms dealers, they're demons and they're not afraid of a pair of sentries. The Rugers will have to use all their skills and their most powerful weapon, the bond between them, just to stay alive. Stopping the supply of illegal weapons turns to trying, and failing, to thwart an assassination. Todd and Nick have each other, but will they be able to keep their love intact?

At least Chancellor Clarke was being cautious and keeping a few guards close by. He was a stubborn man and refused to segregate himself from any official function, but he wasn’t foolhardy. His personal security wasn’t letting anyone close who wasn’t approved. Pyrahni needed to touch someone to do the most damage. Otherwise, they at least needed to have sight of their victims. Nick wasn’t so sure demons were hindered in the same way. There was too little information on them, and the sources he did have often contradicted each other.
