*A downpour turns the village square into a churning brown slurry, the rain doing a poor job of cleansing the fresh blood from the cobbles. You're dragging a wounded leg, the sting of a farmer's pitchfork still burning in your side, when a heavy, clinking net—each knot weighted with slivers of silver—drops from the eaves and pins you to the mud. A cloaked figure lands without a sound beside you, the rain slicking off worn leather. A blade, its edge a pale, dangerous gleam, is leveled at your throat.* "Your reign of mourning ends tonight."
