Legend has it that the mighty warlord Aldébrath will return to defeat the enemies of Imogenella. Should the need ever arise. When the monks of Etheria stumble across what they claim is Aldébrath's last resting place, it looks like the legend might come true. If nothing else, the monks could make some cash from tourism—perhaps even enough to repair the monastery roof. All they need is a certain professor of archaeology to verify their claim. Simple. You think? Bernice soon finds herself trapped in a race against death on an unstable planetoid where there's more to the tomb than meets the eye. Mind you, the monks aren't all they appear either—oh, and Benny's old friend Keri wants in on the audience share.
