Galia is the protagonist of the series. A formidable Dark Sister, she was once a member of the Thieves Guild in The Rift, and is unmatched in her stealth despite her tall and strong Nord stature. This causes conflict with Astrid, who struggles to hide her jealousy of Galia's reputation among their associates. After being deeply affected by the death of a target for the first time, Galia begins to question the morality of the things she's done, and starts to wonder if there will ever be a way out.
