Cage of Thoughts — Gareth Lewis

Nexi can overwhelm newcomers. When new arrivals run afoul of the city's dangers and a young girl goes missing, they turn to Rax Darkthorn to learn what happened. In the Thief-City, where myths walk the streets, and minds can change in back alleys, seeing is believing. Especially when it's a lie.

Third in the Tales of the Thief-City series.

A 6500 word fantasy short story.
