The Imperium is one of the major political, military, and diplomatic forces in the entire continent. Maybe even the world. And Nyle is one of its Inquisitors, the people who investigates crimes and provide their services wherever needed with their quick wits and arcane knowledge, the only know existing magic still practised in the whole world. Were it not for his straightforwardness, and perhaps even indomitable character, and his sometimes overly scrupulous manner, he would have for sure advanced in the hierarchy. Instead, it had been years since the last promotion. If everything depended solely on his superiors, he would never advance further. But the ongoing war with one the Imperium’s neighbour countries, the Kingdom of Zirak, tension in the whole country had skyrocketed after the emperor had ordered forced recruitment. Soon after, it burst into a revolt. In that harsh climate, a violent crime had happened, and with it an opportunity had appeared to get that coveted promotion. After all, it wasn’t his first violent crime, so it shouldn’t pose a problem…right?
