Description
Born into a world shattered by their forefathers, the inhabitants of the Splintered Lands have little hope of a good life, and less of a long one. Caught between brutal oppressors, vicious bandits, and a land gone dusty and poor, they struggle onwards, finding what comfort they can in their children, in the tiniest of pleasures. But a better day looms, born on the winds of a technological revolution that is currently only fits and spurts, but growing by the day. Hounded by the Knights of the Broken Wheel, loathed by the few remainders of the magical aristocracy that plunged the Splintered Lands into their current pitiful state, the technologists forge ahead, the gleam of progress in their eye.And with them rise others: a noble lord sick of the poverty, a child with a healer's touch, and a thief who prefers to paint. Together with the technologists, they form the future of this broken earth, this shattered world.So come, walk the faded paths of a world fallen apart in Splintered Lands!The Splintered Lands collects the stories from Through Fire Forged, All Good Things, Vagabonds and Swine, Season of the Crow, and Lands of a Distant Truth together into a single volume for the first time.
