|---|
"Someone is trying to kill the Iceman, the elderly bounty hunter who lives on Keepsake. After some investigating he finds out that a dictator named the Anointed One wants him dead because he thinks the Iceman is in league with Penelope Bailey, a woman who can cause a future to happen simply by thinking it.
At this point the Iceman realizes he has no choice but to get involved personally, manipulating the Anointed One to attack Penelope while he attacks directly."
Steve, Resident Scholar
