Eleven years before they were framed for the murder of a king, before even assuming the title of Riyria, Royce Melborn and Hadrian Blackwater were practically strangers. Unlikely associates, this cynical thief and idealist swordsman, were just learning how to work together as a team.
In this standalone short story of The Riyria Chronicles, Royce is determined to teach his naive partner a lesson about good deeds. Join Royce and Hadrian in this short story (5,400 words).
This is now a chapter in Ryria Chronicles # 2: The Rose and the Thorn, so for those looking to read the entire series in order, reading this short story on its own isn't necessary.

I cheated on this one, I found out that this is now the 2nd chapter of The Rose and Thorn (according to the author)... Since I read that, I'm claiming I read this.

The only fault I can find with this story is that it was too short! It was a pleasant tease, and I hope to read more about Royce and Hadrian soon.
