Matthias has grown up privileged.
That's what happens when your father is the heir of an entire merchant empire.
Matthias Helvar Fahey never knew his mother, his father. They were killed in the fire that gave him the burn scar on his shoulder, his mother dying mere moments after she reached the neighboring farm, holding her small infant son close to her.
But he had been brought back to Kerch by the neighbors of the neighbors, Jesper Fahey and Wylan Van Eck.
But now that he has reached 17, his world is about to take a nosedive, and to make it out with his
family intact, he will have to delve into the world of his fathers: a world of thieves, gambling, brothels, the world run by his Uncle Kaz. The answer to his problems will cause him to delve into his family history, both from his blood parents, as well as his adopted parents, and as the secrets unravel, he may learn just why his parents perished, and why he is still haunted by nightmares of their death.
