The Death of The Necromancer

Nicholas Valiarde is a passionate, embittered nobleman with an enigmatic past. Consumed by thoughts
of vengeance, he is consoled only by thoughts of the beautiful, dangerous Madeline. He is also the
greatest thief in all of Ile-Rien...

On the gaslit streets of the city, he assumes the guise of a master criminal, stealing jewels from wealthy
nobles to finance his quest for vengeance: the murder of Count Montesq. Montesq orchestrated the
wrongful execution of Nicholas’s beloved godfather on false charges of necromancy—the art of
divination through communion with the dead—a practice long outlawed in the kingdom of Ile-Rien.
