DAYS BEFORE THE WRATH OF GOD
The die had been cast, but it had not yet landed.
In the moments when it was flung high in the air, there was a temptation to believe that anything -- a stiff breeze, a cough, the whims of a mercurial god -- could change how it landed. But nothing could...

CERULEAN GATE PALACE
NEW STERANDEL, AEGIS
