Avaricious Audacity

Lore

Poisoned foodstuffs made the peasantry suddenly fertile beyond belief, and many families soon had several extra mouths to feed - a disaster in the wake of the famine that had plagued the land. Those whose bodies were already weakened by endless celebrations found themselves succumbing to disease, leaving their weak-willed successors foundering in the chaos. Her view of her rivals was thus: "For all his plans, Maestron has proven to be utterly predictable in his schemes. As for his pawns, they are too easily bought off with a breathy promise - weak worms."
