(Brynjolf/Original Female Character + Mercer Frey/Original Female Character)An exiled Breton noblewoman seeks to destroy her tormentors in High Rock, but lacks the skills and connections necessary to succeed. In 4E 198, three years before the events of Skyrim, Frinne Garrows is recruited by Brynjolf and joins the Thieves Guild in order to achieve her goals. He soon becomes her close friend and confidant, but is there something more brewing under the surface?
As she begins making a name for herself, she attracts the attention of the guild's leader, Mercer Frey. Mercer may be her only hope for revenge, and Frinne knows it. They forge an alliance from their mutual passions and greed, but every investment he makes in her also comes at a price.
Will Frinne be able to escape from Mercer’s sphere of influence before her lust for money and power consumes her?
Buckle up, young footpad, this is Daggers Ablaze. -
