Summary
‘Let us live, since we must die.’
Dorian has survived under the thumb of his father, the reigning king, for thirty years. He'd take every chance possible to side-step Halward's plots of selling his only heir into the open arms of a powerful spouse. But Halward, as his greys increase and wrinkles deepen, can see they are both dwindling in time. Something must be done to straighten out his blaspheming, disrespectful son. A personal guard was only supposed to be a gateway; a stepping-stone to a plentiful future.
Syrillon, an elf living miraculously freely in the lower streets of Tevinter, is short on funds. Very, very short. He's lucky enough to be well-equipped with blade in hand and the ability to sell his skills to the highest bidder.
