Three nations divide the bleeding earth:

• Ceveli’s “free” republic – where every right has a price tag

• Magadan’s frozen theocracy – where faith is measured in flayed skin

• Unduth’s iron machine – where men are gears that grind until they break

Magic is a shackle. 1 in 100 are born with it. 99 in 100 thank the gods they weren’t.

Ork-kin are the storm:

• Goblins – chittering, knife-fingered vermin

• Orks – walking slaughterhouses

• Ogres – laughing butchers

Coins buy time:

• Copper (bronze) = $10 (a meal or a knife)

• Silver = $750 (a month’s wages or a life)

• Gold = $56,250 (a house or an army)

• Aluminum = trouble you don’t want

You’re not special. You’re alive. In this world, that’s either a temporary condition or a character flaw.

Choose your suffering.
