Catherine Harridan is a woman of many names and many talents. She was groomed from a young age to be Wraithland's top assassin. Now in her mid-30s, she has settled into the life built for her, until a long-buried vision from her childhood flashes through her mind raising questions about the motivations of her employers and the kingdom that she has spent her life working and killing for. An ancient prophecy comes to light that promises to change everything about the world as they know it, a prophecy that brings the Elves back after 10 thousand years, threatening everything her employers have worked for. The prophecy, along with a mysterious newcomer, creates tension between her and her fellow society of assassins. Now she is presented with the choice to ignore it all and accept the hand she has been dealt or fight to change everything for herself and her world.
This is the first in a collection of stories from the Harridan society.
