Portals opened all around them as demons poured out. They reached the inner bailey of Castle Valence, cheerful and confident, none of them realizing what was about to happen. Her reputation as a thief was well-known and the guards looked forward to recompense, and so it was that they decided to take her directly to General Vahn Cullen for reward.īruised and chained, Syrann sat crumpled at the back of a cart as they brought her towards Castle Valence. It took four guards to catch her and five more to subdue her. Petty thieving kept her alive for a time, but with every theft she pushed her luck.

With the roads no longer safe, she escaped into the city of Valenthia without a penny to her name and no one to turn to. It would be years before she would forgive herself for having run.

She was faced with a choice: run back to her encampment and help fight the soldiers that outnumbered them, or turn and run to freedom. On the night that the soldiers ambushed them, Syrann had been out hunting. Growing up, she was taught to take what she needed and listen only to her instincts, lessons that would lend to her survival after King Leandro ordered the arrest of all nomads in an effort to make the roads safer. Syrann was born among the Valenthian nomads, wanderers of the old roads, performers and thieves, storytellers and liars.
