Onward Bound- Once Upon a Time in Roughside Chapter 0: Among Thieves

By Darrick Chen

Life can be hard in Roughside, the toughest, harshest slum in the Frontier city of St. Graves. Here, survival hinges as much on luck as it does wits amidst the gangs, corruption, and streetside violence. Meet Radd Risk; the quickest, slickest, and just plain craftiest young rogue in all of Roughside. Radd enjoys a carefree life; getting by on charm, smarts, and petty thievery...just another young scoundrel doing what he can to get by without anyone getting hurt, especially himself. But things get complicated as Radd finds himself entangled in a plot involving dwarven gangs, treacherous elves, and the peacekeeping force called the Justicars. Together with his friends -Vanni, the back-alley brawler and Trace, the street magician- Radd begins a search for the most valuable prize of all. The one thing that can't be bought, sold, or stolen in Roughside...
