The peace that formerly reigned in Terra Nova has eroded, now little more than a memory. War ravages the continent. Disputes divide kingdoms; ideals divide families. The quest for power consumes absolutely and indiscriminately. None are immune to its allure.
Who will rise and who will fall? Only time—and ambition—will tell.

The tour was not far from Coheed, perhaps a half a day’s ride, and Cassian was still getting things in order. Not so much papers, much more information. Facts. Thoughts. Decisions. Cambria had held some surprises for him, and already he knew Coheed would, too. Always Coheed.
Riding on his horse, he looked over his shoulder to make eye contact with Isaac. When the man noticed Cassian would gesture for him to come, the slightest movement of his head, chin leading the summons. Assuming Isaac obliged and spurred his horse up to Cassian’s, the king would speak to him in a quiet voice,
“We approach your homeland.” Well duh, but the statement prefaced what he intended to say.

His conversations with Othello and Regan had made him even less excited to see Coheed again after all these years. They had both asked him if he was looking forward to it, but he wasn't. If it wasn't for Cassian, and his request to be his Royal Guard for this tour, he would have tried to not go. But his loyalty to Nevermere and keeping its ruler safe ran deeper than his desire to stay far away from his home country.
Isaac was lost in thought, but not so lost that he didn't notice the king looking back at him. He spurred his horse until it walked next to Cassian's. He could have guessed that the conversation would be about Coheed once more. The man nodded, eyes lingering on Cassian for a moment before looking at the road ahead of them again. "We are, indeed, your Majesty", he responded. Cassian had been gone from their camp. Isaac didn't know what business he had attented, but somehow it made him more anxious about going to Coheed, although he had no idea if it was related. "I hope Coheed won't give us any trouble."

"It already has." Cassian said, the quietest, most ignorable sigh in his voice. He snuck his hand into his pocket and withdrew a letter that had clearly been opened and closed more than once. He would hand it to the Coheedsman.
"Read it before we arrive. I want you on this case, collecting what information you can, getting to the bottom of this. Lady Delvaux will be doing the same. Collaborate if it serves you."

It didn't surprise him much that Coheed was already giving them trouble. It gave Isaac twice as much trouble, because now he was expected to read a letter when he couldn't really read. He had tried a bit, since talking to Alys, but there was only so much reading you could learn in a few weeks. The man nodded. He would read it and if he couldn't make sense of it, he would ask Vesper for clarification. He would rather tell her he couldn't read, than tell king Cassian. It was something he was ashamed of, because it felt like a shortcoming. A Nevermerean man was supposed to be able to read.
"Of course, your Majesty", he said. He was curious to see what was in the letter, but it felt rude to read it while talking to the king. "From what I hear, things have changed a lot since I left, but I'll do whatever it takes to serve and protect you", he said.
