How It Begins
You look at the note that a servant has just handed to you. It's from Melchior. "My latest calculations suggest that we should not delay any further. We must begin our journey tonight. Summon Gaspar immediately and meet me on the terrace."
Wise old Melchior. Technically he's not your superior - you're both magi in the royal council, representing the Babylonian vassal state. And you don't know whether you consider him a friend, either. But he always knows best, so you set off towards Gaspar's chamber immediately.
