The Scroungers by Thomas J Devens

The Lords have fallen. It was the war to end all wars. Violence had plagued the Fractured Kingdoms since the fall of the Old Empire. But as the generals and the lords died in the Valley of Torglen, the folk looked beyond their allegiances. Beyond their nations. The bedraggled masses that survived the battle flocked to the nearest town with hopes of a new life. One in which their rulers remained rotting in the mud. Brigge led her company of sellswords to foreign lands. Now she seeks to lead the dispossessed into a new life. Ebar was forced into duty. Conscripted by the war machine of Volgsland. Though the war is over, his service is not. A killer stalks the streets of Bright Hollow. Tortured by their past and longing for vengeance. Disparate tales intertwine as the lives of the survivors collide. Bright Hollow is a small town, brimming with newcomers.
