Mercury

Oh no, I don't resemble the heroine of a ballad. I have to steal to keep my brother and me from starving. And kill, otherwise I will be killed. To be honest, I’m good at it – after all, I’m still alive. Here, under the scorching suns of the Silver City, where the poor fight for a sip of water, and the immortal queen ruthlessly executes anyone, it already seems like a miracle. I also hear the whisper of metals, and such a secret could cost me my life: any magic is forbidden in our city. But even in the most difficult circumstances, one should not give up hope, right? When I had a chance to change everything – I took the risk. And I would surely have died if not for him. Kingfisher. The first time I saw him, I thought he was Death itself. But it turned out to be a little different.
