Gold of Hapless Fools

Rulers from the Elfin Kingdom of Gwyllion mull over a pact with the Governor and Company of Chartered Economists, which promises trade and plenty for the kingdom's subjects. The pact's success hinges on Gwyllion's first princess, Caeridwen of Ydalir. She studied under the Company's guidance, and helps negotiate its terms with the kingdom's rulers. But while visiting a local court, chaos erupts and the princess gets caught in the fighting. She finds safety when Dominic Tuazon, dreaded assassin and mercenary leader, joins with some companions to save her. Realizing that her life is at stake, Caeridwen and Dominic hatch a plan to reach the capital's safety. Yet Dominic is not all he seems: he plans to profit from the reforms, he knows too much about the princess, and his ruthless thinking irks her. Meanwhile, Caeridwen's pursuers will keep tracking her no matter what she plans. While all these happen, the World Island braces for greater conflicts to come.
