In Their Own Story
The rain slicked the cobblestones of the ruined keep where Lannus stood, his cloak heavy with water and ash. He watched the distant fires burning in the valley below, a reminder of what was lost and what must be reclaimed. 'Order is not given,' he murmured to the empty hall, 'it is forged.' With a hand resting on the hilt of his sword, he turned toward the map table, ready to plot the next move in the long war for Stolen Lands.
