Role

Chapter 9

Despite constant battle with the Fortress and the Outlanders
Hoisshyr found himself rising in the influence of merchants.
Wheeling and dealing throughout Darsylon, Dagdan, and Cragstone
he found himself flush with coin, and he oft brought it to the Palace
and to the coffers of the Emperor.
He found he acquired trade connections and a prosperous reputation,
which allowed him late-night deals other merchants didn't get.
Quietly angling for becoming the next War Master, he never forgot
that he set his sights on the Throne of the Emperor.
From such a seat of power, he would finally bring the Hamsah
merchant guild to heel, and sell the fools who spurned him
to the Crystal Isle's as they deserved.
Despite facing insurmountable odds, he ever strove for bringing
the Offering of the Blood Oath so that the Power of Civilization
would be manifest in the land, and particularly Black Claw.
No one would sneer at his kin when they organized in the Grand Design.
No one would sneer at him when he was given Dominion there for
the vision he acquired.
Bringing his millionth coin to the Emperor was a milestone
amongst the many he ambitiously planned for in the future.
