In the seedy world of Merethia's underbelly, not everyone with a smile is an ally.

For many, the elven city of Merethia is a wondrous place, where dreams come true. For Tip and Marshalla, however, it is a dark and dreary hell where every day is a fight for survival.

But in Merethia, everybody dreams, and these two street urchins once dreamed of sharing in the city's glorious wealth one day. It was a dream that drove them to take whatever job came their way. As for the risks, well...Merethia is no place for the weak.

Then they met Anieszriel, a terrifying chronodragon whose essence was trapped in the most powerful of arcane prisons. The wards about her prison should've made escape impossible, and kept her from claiming Tip as her new host. Only, they didn't.

It was an accident, but who would believe them? The Kin-Slayer was free again, thanks to them. And so now, they run, hunted by those eager to end their lives and return Anieszriel to the void. To survive the onslaught, they turn to each other and what few friends they have. Except, this is Merethia. When it comes to friends, not everyone with a smile is an ally.
