The Chevor Cat
“The Chevor Cat” was the original scene in Traitor’s Blade that takes place when Falcio is first reminiscing about life shortly after the Greatcoats were disbanded. When I was finalizing the book, it felt as if it might be too laid back – not “actiony” enough to fit that moment in the book. However I’ve always had a fondness for this scene – specifically how it reveals how easily the Greatcoats went from being legendary heroes to reviled traitors.
