Prologue Summary
Content Warning: Legends & Lattes depicts fantasy racism and violence.
Orc adventurer Viv finishes off the Scalvert Queen—a giant, meaty monster—by shoving her great sword, Blackblood, into the Queen’s skull and ripping it open. She thrusts her hand into the monster’s head cavity and pulls out an artifact known as the Scalvert’s Stone. Her party of fellow adventurers cheer, having completed their mission. Surrounding them, many treasures are entombed in the walls of the Scalvert Queen’s lair. Viv is not interested in these treasures, but her party members are. She leaves, having decided she’s done with adventuring after 22 years. The rest of her party, Fennus, Roon, Taivus, and Gallina, is confused by her sudden exit. Viv doesn’t stay to explain.
Chapter 1 Summary
Viv has done research and decided on the city of Thune for her new life. With Blackblood strapped to her back and the Scalvert’s Stone tucked safely in her pocket, she enters the valley where Thune lies. She references a rhyme about the Stone bringing fortune and one’s desire when close to thaumic lines.
