The Legend Of Eli Monpress

Description

Eli Monpress is talented. He's charming. And he's a thief. But not just any thief. He's the greatest thief of the age and he's also a wizard. And with the help of his partners - a swordsman with the most powerful magic sword in the world and a demon-seed who can step through shadows and punch through walls - he's going to put his grand plan into effect. Because Eli won't rest until he's amassed a fortune. Step one in his plan is to increase the bounty on his head, so he'll need to steal some big things. He'll start small for now though: he'll just steal something that no one will miss - at least for a while.
