Back when Aleksey was an orphan child, everyone walked over him. He was on the verge of the Abyss, when a small soft hand reached out to him. A small girl, a year younger gave him food. From that day on, she often came back to the alley he slept in and gave him food, clothing, anything she could get her hands on. After some time, she disappeared, locked away by her parents again. If it wasn't for that encounter, Aleksey wouldn't have lived probably.

10 years later, Aleksey became the most dangerous man in the whole kingdom. An assassin, and the best one at that. And it granted him a lot of money. He was still living in the shadows, but he learned how to bend them, use them to his advantage.

Today he got the highest-paid job yet, but it was equally dangerous: sneak into the royal palace and steal an specific, important document.
