I'm trying to create a fantasy story where an aging assassin is approached by a teenaged merchant's daughter. She believes her father is being targeted because, while being wealthy, he also leads the Traders' Guild that opposes the import of illegal spell ingredients. The killer laughs it off until he discovers that an upstart rival has been brought in to complete the job.
Not wanting to be implicated in any wrongful deeds, the head of the Mage's Enclave hired the rising star of assassins. A premature attempt is made upon the father's life, only to discover that he, his daughter and the older assassin have fled the city.
The girl wants to keep her father safe and learn who is (directly) behind this. The old killer wants to defeat his rival and perhaps retire. Daddy dearest wants to survive while making the Mage's suffer. The hired gun wants his man and the hunt is on...
Does this sound at all plausible?
