In a world of secrets, power comes at a price, and survival demands more than courage. Kenric stumbles out of the forest broken, alone, and bleeding. Saved by the village herbalist, he must rebuild his life from nothing. Haunted by loss and forced to prove his worth in a place that does not trust him. In the nearby town of Two Rivers, Gwene, a gifted bard with a dangerous past, arrives under orders from the King to uncover the truth behind the rising power of the Thieves’ Guild. But as her music reveals more than sound, and powerful enemies close in, she finds herself caught in a web of corruption that reaches far beyond the streets. Meanwhile, Judd, a ruthless outlaw leader, is given a simple command by the head of the Thieves’ Guild: burn a village to the ground. Gathering a crew together, he seeks to fulfil his orders and, perhaps, find a way to climb higher in the hierarchy of power. What follows is a chain of violence that will drag them all together through bloodshed, betrayal, and a battle that will decide the fate of more than just one town. As forbidden alchemy, hidden magic, and dark ambitions collide, no one will emerge unchanged. Because in the end, survival is only the beginning.
