This week’s post is a short one, with character sketches for the three most powerful people in Ellay: the Mayor, the Commissioner, and the Deputy Commissioner.  These three men rule Ellay and the surrounding area, which gives them control over trade between the west coast and all points east, since Ellay sits smack on the crossroads.  You can imagine how they would view smugglers attempting to circumvent Ellay and the taxes placed on trade goods.

The post is here: Who’s Who in Ellay

Have a glorious weekend, and may the guard never find your secret shrine.
