The cantankerous Hengekeeper, Thaddeus Stonebreaker, blocks his way at every turn. Frustrated and determined to protect his mother no matter the cost, K’Las disguises himself and enlists the help of an Inquisitor willing to teach him, but the price will be high, including walking away from his family and the only home he has ever known.
