Cedar Ashes

You are part of the Obsidian Order, an ancient brotherhood of assassins. You were doing some Work for a client in the city, but the client had the gall to attempt to betray you. Before you could explain to them how that was a very stupid and dangerous thing for them to do, they got away. Luckily for you, none of the injuries you sustained were fatal. You were found by another of your Order and brought somewhere safe to recover. Cedar Ashes—her code name, obviously, neither of you use each other's real names while on a mission—is a Second Choir ranked assassin in the Order, making her your superior in the rankings of assassins. You've never worked with her directly before, but she has a reputation for being a very skilled, very serious devotee of the tenets of the Obsidian Order.
