In the grim realm of Mordikhaan, where loyalty is as fleeting as life itself, Lord Steward Santaris Sendus stands on the precipice of death. For forty-four years, he has wielded power in a land forsaken by its queen, a place where assassination is considered a merciful end for the weary. But as Santaris's grip on life weakens, the kingdom teeters on the brink of chaos. Without a clear successor, the blood-soaked succession rituals among the nobles threaten to plunge Mordikhaan into a war that could dwarf all that has come before. As assassins circle and the realm's Knight Commanders sharpen their knives, Santaris contemplates the legacy of his brutal reign. From a violent fugitive to the dread queen's enforcer, his life has been a testament to Mordikhaan's cruel laws of survival. Now, with his final breaths, he finds himself haunted by visions of a kingdom on the edge of destruction and wonders if the shadows he summoned will consume all he has built. "The Dying Days of Santaris Sendus", the prologue To A Fire in the Heart of Knowing, invites listeners into a world where power is a deadly game, and the line between saviour and tyrant is as thin as a blade's edge. Join us as we unravel the fate of a man who built an empire on blood, and the dark legacy he leaves behind.

In Chapter Two of "A Fire in the Heart of Knowing," Druzman, once a revered priest, now a seasoned scribe of Yenarinvahl, encounters a dire scene that compels him to revisit his roots of mercy and justice. After rescuing a half-dead woman found in a ditch, Druzman's commitment to safeguarding the downtrodden is tested as the castle braces for the Midwinter festivities, a time when the high walls of Yenarinvahl should spell safety, not threat.

As the menacing Myde and his troop of Bear’s Claw mercenaries brazenly enter the castle grounds, flaunting the feeble peace, the festivities turn sour. Their arrival is not just a show of strength but a deliberate provocation, challenging the ruling Vahds' faltering grip on their domain.
