Chapter 8

The years marched inexorably on for Hoisshyr.
Promotions came, as he grew in strength.
It became apparent that even amidst the order and laws of the Empire,
that dissent formed amongst the sects.
The healer Rathgar and Hoisshyr leveraged against one another
to gain position and strength.
Upon gaining his fortieth title, Hoisshyr was approached by the
High Priestess, Jagre, about converting religions for a promotion.
Politely declining, Hoisshyr and Rathgar hatched a plan to pull
down the High Priestess. A plan that led to the Emperor Ahinu.
But before the plan could come full circle, Rathgar disappeared.
Biding his time, Hoisshyr waited for the day he could exact a reckoning
and see the one in Dominion who was unworthy, cast down in the way
of things done in the Empire.
The endless war between the paladin in the Fortress
and the creatures that lived north of Arkham left Hoisshyr with
little time to plot, but he aimed high. To the throne.
He haggled, he bought, he sold, and he became more reputable in the
circles of the merchants, even gaining notice in his guild for his skill.
He would still lay the Guild of Merchants low in his wake.
One day he would be War Master. One day, he would be Emperor.
He would seek the Holy Overseer's favor once more, as he did his part
to spread the Grand Design and see things back in Order.
