The kingdom of Forsilvra is a thriving land. Most people live their days on their farms or in their mines, working day to day in order to survive. But for the elite class, those Lords who govern lands and provinces, life in Forsilvra is constant struggle of power. The battle for power and position is usually a subtle one - the ties of marriage, the treaties that bind families and lands, the barter and trade of wealth, property, and resources. The gypsies rule the mountains, while the tribal community of the Jin manage a trade surplus from their island.
Fifty years ago, after a civil war involving the entire kingdom, a new King from a new line was crowned. Today, House Sterlyn is still the rightful ruler of Forsilvra and Merquis' grandson, Alrik, is now on the throne. But not everyone in Forsilvra is happy with the current state of affairs. Some don't believe that House Sterlyn is right for power, while others feel they have a better claim the throne. Trade between the Jin, the Forsilvrans, and the gypsies has been strained. Gossip of factions in the gypsies and Forsilvrans with vendettas have been whispered from spying tongues. Political unrest is brewing in Forsilvra, as those of noble class struggle to push their own houses into power, while all three peoples fight to continue to co-exist in the peace that the Lorterra family had once so easily created.
