Escaping the bustle of a clan that is only just beginning to form, Lex and his team, on the instructions of the Academy of Magic, head to the city of Coghl. He doesn’t yet know what awaits him, who he will meet on this trip, but he understands one thing perfectly: his path lies — at the very least — toward the unofficial thieves’ capital of the empire. And no one can say what this journey could turn into for him, since, beforehand, there’s just a “light stroll” along the roads of the Empire.
