For fifteen years, Darminor has limped through life on a withered leg, envying the world around him while perfecting the banned art of potionmaking. Now, after all this time, he finds that healing may be within his grasp. He need only brew the dragonclaw elixir, the rarest of potions—and then steal it from those who hired him. It's his one chance at health and freedom. Can Darminor muster the courage—and the wiles—to succeed in his plan?
