Kinch Na Shannack, a skilled thief, owes a significant sum of money to the Takers Guild for his extensive training in various criminal activities. These skills encompass lock-picking, knife-fighting, wall-scaling, fall-breaking, lie-weaving, trap-making, and a few minor magical abilities. The weight of this debt has pushed him to lurk along the old forest road, eagerly waiting for his next victim.

However, fate had other plans for Kinch Na Shannack today. He mistakenly targeted Galva, a formidable knight and the devoted handmaiden of the goddess of death. Galva is on a mission to find her missing queen, who disappeared after a distant northern city fell victim to giants.

Despite his failed robbery attempt and fortunate escape, Kinch's fate intertwines with Galva's. They are now pursued by common enemies and face uncommon dangers. Goblins relentlessly crave human flesh, krakens lurk in the dark waters, and honor is a luxury few can afford.

This epic journey propels Kinch Na Shannack and Galva into a realm of treachery, bravery, and survival. They must navigate treacherous terrain, outwit formidable opponents, and confront their own inner demons as they strive to fulfill their destinies and protect the realm from impending doom.
