Blood and Lead

'They pay in blood, I pay in lead.'
Therv dust runs the world and the Mid Sea cartels run Therv. The Great Five Cartels are locked in an eternal stalement, where none is strong enough to wipe the rest out. But soon a massive shift in the balance of power is made, and the Great Five Cartels arm themselves and plunge the archipelago into a bloody war.
From across the sea, Nehadon watches in horror as the great clans and houses of Ashae tear the Sultanate apart in a bloody war of succession. He then watches in bewilderment when they put into power an incompetent pencil pusher bureaucrat as Sultan. He watches in dread as the Radagan Horde continue to amass strength and numbers threaten their borders. He watches in disbelief as his new sultan instead chooses to wage a useless war against their allies. He watches with great interest the growing wealth of the cartels and it becomes all too clear to him what he must do. In order to save his nation from the horde, he must seize the wealth of the Mid Sea and use it to overthrow the Sultan.
From the City of Montez, Laia Carmina is left broken, disfigured and widowed by the chaos of the drug war. Thrown from her pedastal and robbed of her inheritance, all seemed lost for her. But soon she comes into a power that not many in the Mid Sea possess, and she then embarks on a journey to claim what was stolen from her.
From the Mid Sea, hails a tale of war and tumult. A tale of drugs and fortune. A tale of vengeance and resentment. A tale of ambition and valour. A tale of men and women that have been plunged into a world they never knew of nor learned to live in. And if they were to survive in said world, it is up to them to turn the tale into one of Blood and Lead.
