Description

The year is 1610. King Moirades has passed. Long live King Pharandros of Tarsh. The Red Emperor, Moonson, wishes his adopted daughter to marry Pharandros so that Tarsh will forever be bound to the Lunar Empire. Dissidents in Tarsh, however, still recall the horrors unleashed upon them during the battle of Grizzly Peak. They seek an opportunity to strike back against the Lunars. Moonson sends a group of Lunar heroes to escort the Red Bride to Tarsh so she can prove that she has the blessings of the Earth goddesses. They will, however, be opposed by the Tarshite rebels who will stop at nothing to prevent the wedding. Can the Lunar heroes set aside their own differences in issues so they can assist the Red Bride in fulfilling her destiny? Role-playing stressed. Some knowledge of Glorantha is helpful. Simplified rules will be used. This is a re-run a game originally run at Chaosium Con in 2022.
