Teacup is an acquisitioner, not a thief. Admittedly, the nuance doesn't play well with the town authorities, but as long as the kids get fed and nobody notices the little odds and ends that keep disappearing, he can ignore his nagging conscience. Unfortunately, staying gainfully employed has become increasingly difficult ever since his misunderstanding with the assassins' guild. When the dark guild sends a pair of magii to polish him off, Teacup decides there's no shame in seeking sanctuary in Fortrus, a city built up around the greatest abbey of the Paladins. He's always preferred a quiet...

Too girly or too boyish. Too thin or too fat. Too quiet, too loud. Be ambitious, but don’t hurt feelings. Be inquisitive, but don’t interrupt. Be outspoken, but don’t be bossy. Most of all, be yourself—but be a lady.
What’s a girl to do in a world filled with contradicting gender expectations, aside from saying sorry?
