I’m Adreya Rashé, a reincarnator, a mage, and a master of khanto—trained through an extreme program by several well-known teachers, whose successes even interest Lord Larine herself. And I’m also a Doppelgänger, an assassin whose name, since recently, has been on everyone’s lips in the Lower City. The Doppelgänger is, you could say, my shadow—my second “self,” the reveal of which threatens me with the worst possible consequences. But there are those who are determined to catch me, and my top priority is to make sure they don’t succeed.
