The bounty was plastered from the boulevards of Malle\\u2019s Fist to the canals of Kanton, on the broken archways of the old imperial road and the mural boards of the old eastern sea wall:


TO WHOMEVER SLAYS THE BEAST, SO CALLED THE ADVOCATE, IN LOYALTY TO ORDENNA AND ALL MANKIND, A REWARD DUE, EARNED, AND PAID BY THE HONORABLE IMPETOR OF ALL HIERON, FELA MALLE: 100,000 IN COIN OR THE ARMORY AND ESTATE OF A BLOODED PEER.


And so, floating down the Archivist\\u2019s River towards the smogging skies of Malle\\u2019s Fist, a group of heroes intends to collect.


This week on Spring in Hieron: Unfinished Work


If only I had been more attentive during my arrival to the city all those years ago. Or if father would push past his obstinance and help me find it. Or if it had been delivered by fate into Hadrian\\u2019s hands instead of Eprhim\\u2019s. Perhaps a less ambitious violence would have brought a Spring more-
No. It cannot be known.
All that can be said with confidence is that of all my contingencies, the killing of my son, turned mocking mimicry of Him, by my erstwhile disciple is the one I least preferred. And in that way, perhaps this tragic unfolding of events has been most kind.
-An excerpt from the journals of Samot, Lord Unbroken, in Exile and Repose
