The Item of FlamesIn ancient mythology, the Titan Prometheus was punished by the gods for providing man the gift idea of open fire - a meeting that arranged humankind on its span of knowledge. As punishment, Prometheus was destined to a rock. But in The Item of Flames, those chains stop to be, and the great champion of man walks from that immortal prison into present-day South Central Los Angeles. Disheveled and lost, he's thrown in jail, where he fits lifelong criminal Nosome Blane. Surprised at what humanity has done with his gift, he looks for another way to enable his cause. His only desire is situated with Nosome's bedridden fourteen-year-old nephew, Chief Reddy, who's anointed with Prometheus' second gift idea of fire.
