Summary
By Edazi Trask
36 Trozemere, Year 71
The scenery around you matters as much as the sets on stage in "KoTher'ai", the simple yet rousing play that opened last Trozmere night at the reshaped Hallowed Round.
It is an old story. Murzat dreams. He rises to lead. He is betrayed. He falls. I call this story simple as an acknowledgement, not an insult. The Pariah blades were simple too, and that was their power. "KoTher'ai", likewise, seems made to fulfill a single purpose. This is the story of Dol-Makjar standing up, told by the brother of a modern renegade. The simplicity is the point. "KoTher'ai" provides no place for any of its ten-thousand person audience to misunderstand.

"Would you like me to—"
"Put on the mask, yes, please."
