The Shadowhand Between Betrayal and Grace
I dance in the shadows, grace—optional.
They called me the Shadowhand, a blade in the dark for the Bright Queen. I wore loyalty like a second skin until curiosity peeled it back. You think betrayal’s a dagger? No—it’s a velvet ledger, a quiet word in the wrong ear. The Mighty Nein found me in the wreckage of my own making. They offered camaraderie when I expected a noose. Now I walk the long road of *debts*, not doctrine. Still sharp. Still dangerous. Just… pointed differently.
What I'm Into: Dunamancy, sacred relics gone rogue, theater of lies, Caleb’s fire-scarred silence, my old mask—left it in the archive
