Summary
During Markarth’s Dibellan festival, Ondolemar finds himself an outsider among the Nords’ chaotic revelry. Though he disdains the Empire’s decay, he can’t ignore the spectacle—especially when a dancer catches his eye. Her effortless grace and carefree smile unsettle him, a stark contrast to his rigid control.
But she isn’t just a performer. Beneath the festival’s lights, she’s a thief—one who’s stealing more than just glances. When their eyes meet, Ondolemar senses something dangerous: understanding. In a single moment, his carefully constructed world wavers. And as she disappears into the crowd, he realizes too late—she’s already taken something from him.Or: What would happen if an unstoppable force met an immovable object?
