Scratch your Pratchett-kink with Fantasy Vulgarities for Vulgarity's Sake!
Welcome to Maruvanar: a backwater island world of loosely held convictions, toothless government, and a crushing income disparity that feels depressingly familiar. Here, the downtrodden spend their days trying to survive the soul-crushing weight of the daily nine-to-five. Sound relatable? It shouldn’t, but it does anyway.
When merchants passing through Verdenburgh bring troubling word of folks vanishing from Fort Democratus, nobody cares. But when a foreign traveler arrives in Bleaksky Baile hoping for a fresh start—only to stumble into the disappearance of a beloved trinket peddler—it becomes clear a devilish plot is afoot.
The task of exposing this grand conspiracy falls to the only people cynical enough to see it: a rough-and-tumble team of drunken, foulmouthed miscreants from the Verdenburgh Daily.
Half crass wordplay and half creative expletive, The Horned Alliance is a puerile picaresque fantasy about who we could be if someone just gave us a chance. Because all of us are liars just one weird adventure away from a comfortably dangerous life.
Someone once said, "We’re all about four or five bad decisions away from shittin' in a bucket."
