This is a story about breathtaking and dangerous adventures of Captain Blake Saber, a daring, exceptionally sly, perceptive and extraordinarily lucky devil who faces terrifying enemies he thought existed only in ghost stories. Pursuing legendary lost treasure, 'Black Bess Tears', that consists of diamonds of the first water and a singular vial of the mythical Crystal Dragon`s Blood, which is believed to possess immortal qualities, he is unexpectedly attacked by hmers, smoky monsters from horror tales. Luckily, Blake meets a powerful, strong and mysterious ally, Mtriel D. Blackwell, with extraordinary powers and a very devious nature all her own. She saves him from the monsters and explains that rdu is after him and hmers are his bloodhounds. She warns them these monsters can't be killed with pirates` regular weapon. Somehow though, Mtriel does manage to kill them with her unusual and terrifying weapon. Blake finds out that rdu also has his eyes on the Dragon's Blood which complicates everything for the Captain.
Unwittingly, Blake becomes a part of Mtriel's shrewd ploy even though his own plan is to use her to protect himself from rdu and his beasts. Mtriel goes about challenging Blake on many levels while effectively and constantly stinging his formerly bullet-proof ego. Blake and Mtriel`s constant conflicts and arguments make their joint adventure even more comical and complicated, since both are stubborn and crafty liars who pursue their own goals and do everything to outsmart each other. Each hates to lose, especially to the other. But at the same time, they get to know each other and learn to trust each other. Mtriel helps Blake to overcome all obstacles, imaginable and unimaginable, and defeat all their common enemies and together they go through their thorny yet thrilling journey side-by-side beyond the seas to unknown worlds where ones dread to go and the others don't dare even think about!
