To shed light on an island used for biological experiments in the past, the armed forces ask for the help of an expert biologist and Crank Bolt, the world's best explorer.
Bolt Crank is commissioned by the Dusolier Corporation to steal a painting preserved in the Hotel Promise, where he is captivated by the charms of the proprietor Anina.
The country of Dwide is in the midst of an invasion by its neighbor. They hire Bolt to rescue a captured Mercenary before he breaks and reveals vital information to the enemy.
A woman enlists Bolt's help in hunting down an item her father left behind for her. The job leads them to what is ostensibly a garbage dump, but is so much more beneath its surface.
A nun on a proselytizing mission has her faith shaken when she meets Bolt. She must face down a murderer whom believes he is granting salvation to his victims in a way the church cannot.
Bolt is brought back to life for one last job: bringing down Lavion so it can be studied and another ship which defies gravity can be created in its wake.
