Tora Steals Things - Volume 2: I'm Wilting

Tora never wanted to see the woods of his saplinghood, Caledon Forest, for the rest of his life. Yet now he’s back, by demand of the Order of Whispers, on a job meant to justify his membership with them. The job is easy enough—rob a village of angry hylek to get back some vital documents. The real issue is how long he’s required to stay to do it—a month at minimum. Making matters worse, there’s an old friend-now-enemy, Warden Terin Dellis, relentlessly hunting him, and a dangerous acquaintance from his past drawing unwanted attention to him. Can he manage to lay low for an entire month, escape the demons of his past, do the job and get out? Or will things go awry when three young saplings enter the scene?

Volume 2: I’m Wilting explores the tragic origins of our titular thief and how he became the thief he is today. It tells the story of Tora’s journey joining a corrupt thieves’ guild, losing his best friend, and escaping his guild as it violently tears itself apart.
