Here I am again, fighting for my life. You already know me. I used to be Madame Calixta Harlow Carlyle, the Exotic prostitute of Talbert but not anymore. Now, I am married to a Marquess and have accepted my position as the third Vanquisher of Alhambra. Things are getting from bad to worse in the Kingdom of Alhambra. My husband Dreyden and I destroyed the demon Nartago, but I know crafty Jadro must have another wretched monster lined up. After the fight, we decided to stay in Elijah’s village so I could give birth to my child. But now that my daughter is born, we must keep moving to the Fort of Marr. We are so close, and yet so far. I’m Alesha. I used to be a prostitute, but now I am a huntress. I murdered my brother, and I’m not sorry. That bastard raped me, and he had to die. He will never hurt me again. But now I must run fast and get to the train station to catch up with Calixta and the others. OH, NO! I can see them boarding the train. “Wait for me!” said Alesha. The train is pulling away. I am running behind it. But the train picked up speed, and I stayed behind in the city of Nhava. “I will find them,” said Alesha. But something worse than being left behind happened to me; Lord Shedfield, my first client and lover, found me on the train platform. He noticed I had changed my Trade Tattoo. I am going to jail and maybe end up on the gallows for sure. I am Gálida, the elf and second Vanquisher of Alhambra, and I am dying in the dungeons of the Fort of Marr. My people and I are locked in cocoons made to help us cure our injuries, but now they are our coffins. We are encased in perpetual sleep. We were gullible, and Jadro cursed us. Oh, but today in the depth of my sleep, I can hear the steps of one that can break our curse. The one walks stealthily through the halls and searches for something that is not his to take. Could it be a thief or a hero? I am Evelin, and you don’t know me yet! I am water, wolf, and wind. I will kill Calixta one way or another. “Not if I kill her first,” said Jadro.
