Lord High Provost: Keeper of the Condemned

Know Your Neighbors: Sikilian Confederation
By anyone's estimation, the Sikilian Confederation is a blight on the world. Handily the most vile collection of loathsome rulers ever gathered in one area, Sikilia is singlehandedly responsible for everyone else thinking that Slothjemia can't be all that bad by comparison.
