Crown Locale: The Broken Valor
Written by Nathan   
Saturday, 22 September 2007 14:24

Skein of Shadows takes place in the sprawling fantastic city of Crown, and one of the prominent locales that is eventually visited by every character is the Broken Valor. The establishment sharply contrasts with the more reputable and grand structures of the city like the Silver Lyre College, Crownmeet Castle, or Moontower. The Valor is an imposing arena dedicated to bloodsport, and within gladiators live and die by the whim of the crowd.

The following tale comes from Nathan's character, Arastin. The rogue visits the arena on a business matter, and even after his brief visit, the Valor leaves a lasting impression.
