Lin Li Chun is an aged and renowned but unlicensed Cathayan sorcerer who, along with his wife, recently decided to tour the Old World.[1a]
The elderly couple crossed the Worlds Edge Mountains, feasted in L'Anguille, shopped in Marienburg, and lastly they cruised in the Vorbergland Canals. Guests of Reikland by the Emperor's command, wherever they went, they were at risk from ignorant locals, so local authorities were ordered to protect them to prevent a diplomatic incident with Cathay.[1a]
However, in Ubersreik, where no formal command structure existed and the local State Army was stretched paper-thin, escort duties were contracted out to a disparate party of mercenaries, who had to keep them safe at all costs, even against a group of assassins.[1a]
