Death and Tax Evasion
A player-created Guide is available for this content: Mr Chimes' Lost & Found (Guide) |
"Death belongs to the rat. Humans have forgotten its sting. But our smaller souls are honed on its scythe; this sharpness is our whole being."
For many, the Neath has brought reprieve from the inevitabilities of death and taxation. For many, but not all. The Rattus faber get only one chance at life. And to make matters worse, now the Board of Underland Revenue is on their back.
Suffer the knock of the Revenuer at your door. Investigate a schism in the ratty church, and learn what rodents hope for after death. And maybe – just maybe – resolve the question of your taxes.
This is a FATE-locked story.
