The Thirteenth Prince

In the Eternal Empire the Department of War has a plan. A plan for plunder. A plan for conquest.

In the League of Cities they say the Prince will return when he’s needed. That there will always be a Prince, when he’s needed. And every man, woman and child thinks it could be them.

For two lowly functionaries, stopping a doomed invasion might seem like a steep hill to climb. But when all you have is your wits and a broken heart, you really don’t have much to lose.
