Ever feel like life's a game you weren't given the rules for? Same here. Except in my case, the stakes involve ancient artifacts, shady alliances, and a very real chance of ending up on someone's hit list. My name's Aeryn, and I'm not your average thief—I'm a survivalist, a strategist, and, okay, maybe a magnet for chaos. When a relic said to rewrite reality lands in my lap, I have every reason to run. Instead, I dive headfirst into the mess, dragging along Nathaniel Hayes—a brooding scavenger with a knack for sarcasm and, apparently, saving my neck. Together, we've got to outsmart the Syndicate, uncover the traitor in our midst, and survive long enough to figure out why this artifact might be the key to everything. Easy, right? Wrong. Betrayals stack up, shadows grow darker, and somewhere along the way, the line between ally and enemy blurs. But here's the thing about me: I don't back down, and I don't lose. Even when the odds are stacked. Especially when they're stacked. Care to join the chaos?
