Brick By Brick (A Six of Crows Story)

Once upon a time, there lived a boy named Pekka.

It sounds like the beginning of a fairytale, doesn't it? A story told to children to warm them during winter nights, a tale whispered while sitting by the embers of a dying fire, laughed at over steaming cups of hot chocolate.

But fairytales have happy endings.

And we all know how this story ends.

He didn't start off bad. He was just another pigeon, just another farm boy, just another pocket waiting to be picked. He was a nobody.

He came to Ketterdam as a young, healthy, successful man.

He left as another victim of Kaz Brekker.

This is the story of how Pekka Rollins became the Barrel boss that everyone grew to hate.

We are all somebody's monster...
