Just when I thought the UK couldn't become more of a dumpster fire, Lady Laura alerts me to a new phenomenon gripping the country.
Long story short:
There's a "war" taking place.
No, not the one between Iran and seemingly the rest of the world…
But between school kids.
Not to see who's the smartest or brightest, rather…
Who's wearing a red or blue uniform.
Yes, really.
It gets worse:
Apparently, kids are calling on others via social media to bring knives and bats to the schools of their adversaries, and depending on the violence inflicted, that determines how many "points" you score for your team.
I wish I were making this stuff up.
Sadly, I'm not.
Anyway, it's gotten so bad that parents aren't sending their kids to school until the police get a grip on the situation, and I do not blame them one bit.
Had Liam and Nathan been ten years older, this would be OUR problem, too.
It's times like these that I visualise storming the Irish embassy with an AK-47 and demanding they approve Liam's Irish citizenship, so we can move to less volatile parts of Europe.
Somewhere where these problems speak only in whispers.
In many ways, this is exactly how Darius feels in Exiled.
For a decade, he has dreamt of leaving behind the injustice of his exile and the violence of his guild.
The problem?
Such freedom requires coin — and lots of it.
So when the guild's most daring raid arises, Darius has a very difficult decision to make.
To accept it means risking death or imprisonment.
But if they pull it off?
He'd be rich enough to never have to skulk in the shadows again. More importantly, it would provide him with the means to start a new life somewhere far away from the troubles of Estos.
The question is: What will he choose?
