Mercerian Tales: Into the Forge

Kasri Ironheart's future as the Vard of Ironcliff looms over her every waking moment. Her father wants her to forge with a Dwarf of the highest standing, but her heart has other plans. Herdwin Steelarms' future was sealed the day he left the smith's guild in Stonecastle. After decades honing his skills in Wincaster, he was content to remain a bachelor until she came along. To prove his worth, they must now travel east to the city of his birth to make amends. But all is not as it seems, for an unknown enemy lurks on the eastern reaches of the Dwarven lands. Can Herdwin and Kasri stop this menace before it conquers the Dwarven people? Mercerian Tales: Into the Forge explores the complex nature of Dwarven society and its grip on its people.
