War in Heaven
“These are the three pillars that hold up the heavens towards which we all must strive.
— from the Devotionaries of Lord Hanuman li Tosh Danlo found Benjamin Hur's apartment in a neighbourhood of obsidian cloisters, hospices and many fine, three-storey blackstones. There, near Merripen Green, the Street of Smugglers suddenly straightened and became much less seedy and dangerous than it was only half a mile to the east. If one followed it far enough to the west, it emptied into the Serpentine... where it curved around the Winter Ring and passed through the safest (and most boring) part of the city: the well-ordered and tree-lined blocks of the Ashtoreth District. But the streets around Benjamin's apartment were safe enough — or had been until war came to the city. Now that Benjamin's ringkeepers had fairly taken over all the nearby buildings, no one wearing the godlings' gold dared to enter this part of the Farsider's Quarter for fear of being killed as an assassin or spy.MoreLess
