Lord Verrat was not by any estimate a fun-loving happy sort of fellow, and the occasion never seemed to matter. Dour and professional to a fault, this dedicated warrior always seemed to be on the move and in a perpetual state of simmering rage. Only in the presence of his lord, the Viceroy, was Lord … Continue reading Gathering Intelligence

Lies Become Truth
The court of the Supreme Pontiff was almost always in session in the Divine Hall.

Tantrum of the Damned
There is no word in the English language that invokes more terror than "Tantrum."

I Didn’t Want Bad News for Me, I wanted it for Them!
True to form the Viceroy's good mood at hearing of Archduke Xan Kovak of Maelonbourg having been killed in battle was entirely too brief to be properly appreciated. The Viceroy had an extraordinary sense of who Xan was and there had been a time not that long ago that Xan had been an unwilling tool … Continue reading I Didn’t Want Bad News for Me, I wanted it for Them!
The Box is Full! Somebody Alert the Archduchess!
There was a lot of stuff on the shelves in Gilla’s herbalism shop. Everything from small clay pots of living plants to earthenware jars of dried leaves and bottles of colorful liquid corked and sealed with wax.
