“The truth is my friend, I've spent my life playing this part that has been assigned to me. I only married her because it was my duty and I pretended to love her because that is what I thought was required of me. In this life we all are merely actors and we all wear masks that disguise our true feelings. The dutiful daughter, who secretly scorns her father or the hardworking servant, who hides his desire for his master. Was my love for her merely another mask? Then why should my heart been rent apart now she is gone? The fact is, old friend, that the longer you wear the mask the more it becomes your true face.”

From The Passion of Vassilly Salic, Rodrigo Starling

About twenty years ago a number of highly trained infiltrators were sent to the Serradic Empire. During the Upheaval the civil service lost all contact with these infiltrators and they were presumed KIA. A few weeks ago, however, a deserter from the Serradic army turned up at Acryn's gates with knowledge of secret code words and claiming to have been turned by one of these sleeper agents. The agent has sent the message “I am alive and awaiting further instructions”. Felip Caulson has taking the decision that any information the agent may have gained would be useful in putting a stop to the Serradic expansion and using some detailed maps that were recovered from the Raven King of Blood Crag's tower has decided to send a team in to the empire to perform an exfiltration.
