From the introduction: Diamond Eyes is a myth from the land of Maztica that has only grown in popularity since the coming of Cordell and his Golden Legion. Before that fateful day in 1361 DR, the True World knew nothing of the pale faced men who lived a whole world away. Or did they? Diamond Eyes is a tale of magic and betrayal not among men, but rather among the gods themselves! If it is true, it undeniably proves that even if the mortals of the very different cultures were unaware of one another – the same could certainly not be said of the gods. Faerûn may have had much more of a hand in shaping the fate of Maztica than previously believed.
