Nor do they have tails.

But they are most assuredly dead.

Eveen the Eviscerator is skilled, discreet, professional, and here for your most pressing needs in the ancient city of Tal Abisi. Her guild is strong, her blades are sharp, and her rules are simple. Those sworn to the Matron of Assassinsresurrected, deadly, wiped of their memorieshave only three unbreakable vows.

First, the contract must be just. Thats above Eveens pay grade.

Second, even the most powerful assassin may only kill the contracted. Eveens a professional. Shes never missed her mark.

The third and the simplest: once you accept a job, you must carry it out. And if you stray? A nal death would be a mercy. When the Festival of the Clockwork King turns the city upside down, Eveens newest mission brings her face-to-face with a past she isnt supposed to remember and a vow she cant forget.
