Subject(s): Genre/Form: Summary: There's no formal training for battlefield salvage. You just have to pick things up as you go along. Swords, armour, arrows--and the bodies, of course. Over the years, Saevus Corax has picked up a lot of things. Some of them have made him decent money, others have brought nothing but trouble. But it's a living, and somebody has to deal with the dead. Something else that Saevus has buried is his past. Unfortunately, he didn't quite succeed.
