Mutul was once a great kingdom at the hub of a trade network in the Pasion River Basin. One by one, the Snake Kingdom has taken its allies, cutting off its means of survival. In order to regain access to the world, the King of Mutul installs his son at a military outpost nead the Pasion River, the trade artery between the continents. This move touches a political web that is inherently unstable, and wakes the wrath of the Snake Kingdom that will tear his realm, and family, apart.
