| − | The Realm still staggers on without its Empress. Other places in Creation have their own stories. The East is embroiled in a hideous war. The Deathlord <tt>THE WALKER IN DARKNESS</tt> was recently defeated and imprisoned by a coalition of Lunars and Solars acting in concert. Two of his Deathknights, <tt>THE CRAVEN IN BLOODSTAINED SKIRTS</tt> and <tt>THE HUNDREDFOLD EXECUTIONER OF INNOCENCE</tt>, fled his destruction and attempted to live a life in Creation. Their efforts were interrupted, however, when <tt>UNREMBEMBERED SINS</tt> servant to the Deathlord <tt>EYE AND SEVEN DESPAIRS</tt> discovered them and reported the news that the Mask was plotting to overthrow the Scavenger Lands, aided by the former servants and equipment of their former master. In an attempt to stop the Mask the three join forces temporarily, though they each remain devoted to their own ends. <tt>THE EXECUTIONER</tt> wants to redeem himself, <tt>THE CRAVEN</tt> seeks to reconcile her desires with that of her shadow twin, and <tt>UNREMEMBERED</tt> seeks only to serve his ghostly master. Together, the three have a number of adventures, with no small amount of heroism and much destruction. In the process, the cities of Nexus and Great Forks are destroyed. The Mask's domain grows.

| − | Near this growing domain of darkness, the Cynis Satrapy of Kushan is a profitable one. While it is not the source of most slaves in the Realm, it is a place of refinement for them. In the City of Kushan, slaves are brought to attend a number of "finishing schools" that train them in the arts of music, love, and dozens of others. These slaves are then sold, at greatly increased price, to the Realm. The slaves make up the largest part of Kushan's population, with a small over-class called the Citizens ruling over them. The satrapy has only two major cities: the titular Kushan, the center of the nation, and the smaller Ghan, which specializes in the production of large, powerfully armored, and perfectly obedient slave-warriors known as "Defenders."
