The Poison Throne

In "Tumanbay," once a splendid city, now serves as the dark core of a crumbling empire under the oppressive rule of the cult of Maya. Citizens face brutal punishments as Barakat leads a merciless purge, while Gregor, a former spymaster, lives in constant dread. The puppet heir Madu is controlled through opium, and General Qulan languishes in prison, but whispers of rebellion and a looming plague hint at potential upheaval and change.
