So what happens when you have something like a ninja, except perhaps even more secretive, more deadly, but put it in a world as magic-infused as Maldene?  You get a &#8216;Noyon&#8217;.  A ninja with powers &#8230; </p><p><a class="more-link btn" href="http://www.maldene.com/plot-talk/16065">Continue reading</a>]]></description>
