But Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, yet holds out. Yet Empress Laseen’s rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins.įor Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners, and for Tattersail, surviving cadre mage of the Second Legion, the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to mourn the many dead.
