"Gralton has many groups vying for power: the Wise, the Order of Vengeance, the Nameless, the Hand That Takes, the Directorate, and many other fancy names. There are also the people of Halidan Tarne, Casal Tarne... Speaking of which... they're cousins. The former is the army general, and the latter is the leader of the sentry guard. Halidan is a wild daredevil, while Casal is a careful fool. But Casal envies his cousin and his brave soldiers. If you help him take over something that belongs to Halidan, they'll busy themselves with their own problems and leave us be."
