Calamity

Artemis Collins

Glory. Revenge. Money. Warring noble houses. A dying assassin. And two friends caught in the middle. Antivia stands upon the edge of a knife. The nation of elves has been brought to heel by the actions of two nobles. Darkstar and Blackwood. Maggie and Nak don't particularly care about that. A powerfully built ork and a tiny halfling, neither of them are Antivian and both find themselves in the land of elves. Maggie seeks adventure and Nak craves wealth. Unknown to them, an even greater threat looms beneath the surface. War brings different things to different people. For one elf in particular, calamity means opportunity. Vir Violet has spent his many years in service to the Assassins Order. Enforcing Antivianlaw and quietly removing threats to the elvish people. And with the long clock of naturallife shortened unexpectedly, he is haunted by a terrible realisation: What can one person do when the state becomes the biggest threat to its people? Calamity is a story of optimism and pessimism. In a world of elves gone mad.
