Elibor, a tortured youth, struggles to build a life for himself after losing everything twice. He knows only two worlds: one of shadows, where thieves and scoundrels dwell; and one of sweet music and touch, where the courtesans dance. With a foot in both, he is trapped in a swirl of pretense; but one day, a stranger literally falls into his lap, offering a third world... of dungeons, dragons, and endless adventure.
The only price? Leaving the city he grew up in, where Eli lost his innocence, and never looking back.
