The Magic Thief

Connwaer is a thief of the Twilight, a desolate part of the city of Wellmet, teeming with pickpockets. On the run from the city's Underlord, Conn steals a banished wizard's power stone. Becoming the wizard's servant and then his apprentice, Conn becomes embroiled in his master's plan to save the city, whose magic is slowly dying. First he must find his own power stone, which pulls him closer and closer to the duchess's palace. Meanwhile, the Wizard, Nevery, is secretly beginning to question Conn's past: How did the thief survive in the Twilight for so long?
