Synopsis:
Travis Morgan is locked in the dungeon of the thief master Darvin. Griff, the boy assigned to guard the door, leaves young Tinder to take his place. Tinder enters Morgan's cell and listens to Morgan's stories. Neither realizes that they are father and son.

When the councilman Praedor feels Darvin is being too greedy he orders both Morgan and the thief master eliminated. Meanwhile, Darvin has deduced Tinder's true identity and places Griff in charge of the boy's safekeeping. When Griff puts Tinder on guard duty again, Tinder steals Darvin's keys and begins releasing the Warlord.
