Within the dungeon, a famous weapon is nothing more than a basic blade. Even a broadsword that's gutted a dragon can be reduced to shattered steel. Devastated, Garbage seeks out a replacement for her beloved sword...but what weapon could possibly match her? An old blade, sharp as diamond-the return of a legend. As ever, the dungeon's maw yawns wide to swallow foolhardy adventurers, and Iarumas's party continues to delve for treasure, for corpses, and for answers. One day, a member of Raraja's former clan catches up to him and dangles a tantalizing proposition: in exchange for clues about the rhea girl's whereabouts, Raraja must go into the dungeon alone. What could await him but a dark, lonely death? What awaits Garbage but a jagged, broken sword? And what slumbering legends might awaken in the blackest depths of the dungeon?

Deep in the unexplored reaches of the dungeon, a corpse is discovered¿one that shouldn¿t exist. After Iarumas is resurrected, his memories of life before death are gone, and he spends his days delving into the dungeon to retrieve the bodies of dead adventurers. Can they be revived as well? Or will God reduce them to piles of ash on the altar? Either way, Iarumas collects his finder¿s fee. And though his skills earn him some grudging respect, he¿s also scorned for this cold, utilitarian attitude. The living keep their distance¿Iarumas consorts primarily with the dead. That is, until he meets Garbage, a feral young swordswoman whös the sole survivor of a massacred party. With Garbage by his side, Iarumas ventures deeper, scouring the dungeon for clues to his past, avoiding monsters, traps, and the inevitability of a permanent ashen demise.
