She came to be a doctor. All she wants is to learn medicine, keep her head down, and not draw attention. She is failing spectacularly at that last part — especially with a runaway noble friend with pyromancy and a gambling problem, a decorated mage-hunter brother who cannot detect a secret living inside his own sister, and someone in the smoke and gaslight of the city already looking for the girl who survived the crater.
