Mercenary Stories

Bastovar is a city of quiet wars. Above its rain-soaked streets, people gather in warm cafés, music drifts through the night, and life appears almost ordinary. Below the surface, mercenaries fight in hidden arenas, Variant powers shape the balance of the world, and the ancient dynasties hold the city together through fragile alliances. What begins as a seemingly stranger listening from the corner of a room slowly becomes something deeper-something dangerous. Because in Bastovar, even a song can start a war. And the Wolves may have just found the one person they can't walk away from.
