Sal the Cacophony has made few friends, but many enemies. Many, many enemies. When her magic was taken from her, she cried out for revenge. And a power she never understood promised her vengeance. A deal for a bloody price was made.
And now the bill has come due.
In one of the last free cities of the burned-out ruin of the Scar, Sal's many foes-old and new-have hunted down her and her few allies-willing and otherwise -- and all her plans to save them might not be enough.
One last stand. One more story. One final blade to be drawn.
