Heavy Lies the Crown

From The Whereabouts

War laps ever higher, as the tides,
The Chosen bicker, and man abides,
Two evils meet, on tainted mud,
The lands of man are bathed in blood,
But if you wish to spare defeat,
To the lands you go,
Where three rivers meet.

Prologues

Given that Heavy Lies the Crown will be the first storyline to really encompass the entire Scavenger Lands, there's a lot of prologue material. The entirety of The Risen Shadow can be considered prologue material for Heavy Lies the Crown, as can the individual prologue stories within that chapter. The events of Disposable Heroes can be considered a direct prologue material as well.

The Death of Mayhiros Tesos (Marukan)
Midnight's Grandest Eve (Thorns)
An Accord Most Foul (Hundred Kingdoms, Bronze Faction)
