In a world overrun by demons, young Briar Damaj flees his small village after a tragedy, but the news of his flight sparks Ragen Messenger to risk danger and bring home this son of an old friend.

Messenger's Legacy

An introduction to a new character and the return of two old ones. I liked the story, but I can see why it’s been cut from the books

Quick short story; if anything, too short. 

Edit (12/2016): Now I remember reading this one. Still good.

Briar Damaj is a boy of six in the small village of Bogton. Half-Krasian, the village children call him Mudboy for his dark skin. When tragedy strikes, Briar decides the town is better off without him, fleeing into the bog with nothing but his wits and a bit of herb lore to protect him. After 20 years, Ragen Messenger has agreed to retire and pass on his route to his protege, Arlen Bales. But for all that he's earned the rest, he has no idea what to do with the rest of his life. When he learns Briar, the son of an old friend, is missing, Ragen is willing to risk any danger to bring him safely home."
