Synopsis
of The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows
Life has
not been kind to Zenos. He was born in the slums, and his poor and filthy
background has denied him almost every opportunity. After an encounter with a
healer, he throws himself into studying to become one and finally finds an
opportunity when an adventurer invites Zenos into his party. Zenos is
delighted, so much so that he is willing to endure being treated like dirt by
his companions. They do not appreciate his talent and eventually throw him out
on the street, claiming he is no longer useful to them.
With no
money and no options, Zenos decides to put his self-taught skills to work and
opens a clandestine clinic. Word quickly spreads that this brilliant healer
works incredible magic in the city's underworld. Even the royal palace takes
notice... Can Zenos overcome adversity and make a life for himself in a world
that spits in his face? And can he save the lives of the patients who end up on
his doorstep?
