Chapter 12 - The Thief's Tale by Meena Mason
After their wearying ventures, and, in Kessa's case, a close call with the noose, Kessa and Aquestria are not only in need of some respite, but also some trustworthy allies, some good advice, and somewhere to lay low. Nestled within Red Talon's base with Artex, Rake, and Pantheus, they seem to have found that. Unfortunately, it will not last. Not with the dungeon keeper on their tails. And, although, Aquestria has settled confidently, Kessa knows she faces yet another difficulty; her companions will start sniffing around for answers before long. Why does this trouble her? Why can't she tell...

Glaring up at him, Odette hissed, “I won’t answer any more of your questions. You can torture me as much as you like.”

Chapter 10 - The Thief's Tale
A band of skilled allies, just what the girls needed. Red Talon, the only rebels that have managed to thwart and frustrate King Casyius are on their side, though the whys and hows of this unexpected, albeit welcome, alliance are as murky as a swamp at midnight.

Chapter 7 - The Thief's Tale
The cat is out of the bag. The love birds united at last, but, alas, revealing your affection for the love of your life does not supplant the warrant for your arrest nor will it prevent a determined dungeon keeper from stretching your neck at the end of a well-tied noose. Only preparation, craftiness and a lot of luck will do that. While Kessa heals from a disastrous fish bite... ahem... monster bite, Aquestria, Rake, and Pantheus formulate their escape. Will they manage it or will Malieous Fayne, the formidable dungeon keeper of Cyrene, thwart their best laid plans?<...

Excerpt from Chapter 2:
Kessa was relieved when they’d finally found water. She was not only starving, but parched as well. Stooping to the stream’s edge, she sipped the delicious, cool water. She’d barely swallowed two mouthfuls when the hairs on the back of her neck rose and her skin prickled. The calm, peaceful atmosphere succumbed to a building ominous tension.
“Aquestria,” she whispered. “We’re being watched.”
