The Nameless Baron is gravely displeased.
Viktor had once heard that time healed all wounds. Whoever had come up with that saying had clearly never gotten into a physical altercation with a werewolf, but at least Adelstrad's least favourite executioner still has most of his limbs.
That said, while his witch problems may have been solved, battle has finally joined in the Adelstradian countryside as Nordling warbands meet Adelstradian fighting men in the field and blood flows like wine.
Viktor finds himself in a more precarious position than ever before, caught between the rapidly forming factions in a civil war that couldn't have come at a worse time. The Baron is quickly stripping him of friends and half of the people left at his back wouldn't think twice before stabbing him in it.
Dreams of dark things in the past and darker things to come haunt Viktor's sleep at night while in the day the line between the reasonable and the unthinkable begins to blur.
