Hayley's head was all set to be lobbed off, when she'd given a choice -- become a squire or get real friendly with the noose. A scrabbly fourteen-year-old yanked off the streets, her world's upended when she winds up under the stead of Ser Gavin. He's one of the youngest men ever knighted, and a hard ass to boot. Doesn't matter much to Hayley anyway. All she cares about is making it through long enough to steal what she needs before returning back to the streets. The trick is surviving.
