Dancer's Lament (2016)
Path to Ascendancy 1

It was once a land ravaged by war—minor city states, baronies and principalities fighting for supremacy. But then the rival cities of Tali and Quon formed an alliance and so Quon Tali came into being and with it came a peace of sorts.
That was, however, long ago and the regional powers are once more at each other's throats.
