The Lord’s victorious procession across the world didn’t last long—the same world from which he was once shamefully expelled and to which he intended to return triumphantly. People from several different worlds, of various kinds, united against the newly crowned candidate for gods. Old wizards will have to remember their youth, a young apprentice must grow up, a stern soldier must believe in miracles, and the agents of “shops” must break a whole bunch of instructions and regulations. The king will become a spy, and the bard— a dream-mage… And their efforts will not be in vain.
