"Perception and Degree" is the story of two people from diametrically opposed walks of life coming to the understanding that not everything they've heard about "the other side" is necessarily true. When a young Thief of the Guild breaks in to the King's Officer's Academy on a dare, he runs into Gabrielle Ni'sho, a soon-to-graduate Noble student of the Academy. In the confrontation that follows, blood will be shed, perceptions will shift and desperate bargains will be made. Less a morality tale and more an exploration of the forces that drive and shape the beliefs of individuals, "Perception and Degree" attempts to set all sides of an argument forth, leaving the reader to decide who to trust, and whether the decision to end a life is justifiable or not.
