Hans of Iceland Chapter XLIII

In which a sombre tribunal assembles under the dim light of torches to pass judgment upon six prisoners accused of grave crimes, including a venerable ex-chancellor, a towering Icelandic brigand, and the viceroy’s son, whose unexpected presence and solemn confession stir the assembly to tumultuous unrest. Amidst anguished hearts and intertwined fates, the court delivers a merciless sentence that echoes through the shadowed hall, sealing destinies with the austere weight of royal justice.
