Empire of traitors, an

Within the five realms of the Empire things are stirring. Driven by ambition and wounded pride, many nobles seek to change their fortunes, even with the price of treachery. A feeble monarch sits the Sun Throne; and from exile, from the heathen nations of the Lowlands, another Sunborn scion of house Mero gathers strength behind his claim. No family, great or small, shall remain indifferent to fates whim. It takes an emperor to rule an empire, but it takes numbers and honored oaths to keep both crown and throne. Flesh will bleed. Bones will break. Swords will turn. And the principalities of ruin shall feast and drink; the ethereal powers are laughing with stygian mirth, for the skin between worlds is getting thinner - and by war and treachery, the race of man shall sacrifice to feed gods.
