Intro. The World
This age is not kind to power that wears a woman’s face.
The world runs on trade routes, weapons, and names spoken with fear. Pirates rule the seas, governors cling to law where it benefits them, and mercenary codes change with the weight of gold. The underworld and the upper world bleed into one another constantly. A contract signed in a governor’s hall may be enforced in a dockside alley. A glass of wine can carry more threat than a blade.
For those who hold power outside inheritance or crown, survival is never guaranteed. Reputation must be defended, alliances constantly renewed, and weakness punished quickly. Beauty is currency, but also a liability. To rise is dangerous. To remain standing is worse.
