A thoroughly enjoyable slice of queer adventure fantasy. Bandits displaced by war try to make a living in a land where colonialist outsiders have gained the ascendancy. Nuns with metaphysical powers pick through the rubble of abbeys destroyed by the warring factions. Sacred relics spill into the black market. It has that delightful queer D&D vibe I’ve been craving ever since Legends & Lattes, but efficiently builds around it a fascinating setting I'd be happy to explore further someday.
