A lone figure on a battered mount, he's a tempting target for bandits - and temptation is not something that the inhabitants of these badlands are inclined to resist.

And when the dusty traveler walks into the local saloon, it soon becomes clear that anyone who stands between him and his mission will share the same fate. But who is this mysterious stranger - and what is the target that he has fixed his glowing red eye upon?
