Professional Integrity
A Fantasy Short Story by Michael J. Sullivan
Companion Book to the The Riyria Chronicles Series
Royce Melborn, a cynical ex-assassin, and Hadrian Blackwater, an idealistic ex-mercenary, are a pair of rogues-for-hire known as Riyria (it's elvish for two). This duo makes a living taking nefarious jobs for conspiring nobles.
Doing so usually involves stealing something, but when a young heiress asks them to steal her . . . well, that is a first for the pair.
This short originally appeared in the Blackguards Anthology released in the anthology Blackguards: Tales of Assassins, Mercenaries, and Rogues released by Ragnarok Publications.
