The Shadow And The Thief

Five years before Rhea sent Haedion’s world up in flames, he stumbled through the capital city streets of Atheria on a mission. Steal the diadem, avoid his brother, and return to The Library of Moridino to receive his reward. No interruptions, no deviations from the plan.

Bastian was surviving. Stealing, running, and doing whatever it took to live to see another sunrise in the smoke-covered sky of Atheria. But when Bastian stumbled upon a black-clad stranger with a pocket full of gold, he couldn’t resist.

Forced to trust each other over a handshake and a drink, Haedion and Bastian worked together to steal from the one enemy they both share. Through the city streets, into the heart of the blackened castle, and through the countryside of Nador, they will come face-to-face with their pasts, their failures, and their deepest desires for a better future.
