Lawful Times

With no heir to the throne of Merewood, the elves are divided in their choice of successor. Merith, a loyal friend of the late king, believes his son, Thaldyr, has more right to rule than most, but others remember a different bloodline. The great forest of Merewood has not seen a queen – a jewel – rule for centuries, but does the lost jewel of Merewood even exist? Both parties believe that she does, and with a vague idea of where she resides, both intend to find her first… for very different reasons.

Meanwhile, in the bustling city of Landos, a travelling con man returns, fresh from escaping the merciless grasp of King Louis de-Cap – Garlician monarch and lover of all things painful to those that aren’t… him. The prodigal son soon formulates a plan to turn the city’s archaic law system on its head.

On the outskirts, in their strange little blithering bohemia, the wizards… are being wizards…

Oh, to live in truly Lawful Times.
