When he finally builds the courage to approach her, she's everything he imagined and more. But a group of murderous humans are hunting the kraken, and continued contact with Aymee may destroy them both. Now that he's tasted her sweetness, he can't give her up...but can he risk his world and his people to satisfy his need for her?

A highly illustrated history of the Spanish conquest of Mexico from 1519 to 1521, an epic clash of civilisations that saw the destruction of the Aztec Empire. In 1519, the Conquistador Hernán Cortés landed on the mainland of the Americas. His quest to serve God, win gold, and achieve glory drove him into the heartland of what is now Mexico, where no European had ever set foot before. He marched towards to the majestic city of Tenochtitlan, floating like a jewel in the midst of Lake Texcoco. This encounter brought together cultures that had hitherto evolved in complete isolation from each other – Catholic Spain and the Aztec Empire. What ensued was the swift escalation from a clash of civilizations to a war of the worlds. At the conclusion of the Conquistador campaign of 1519–21, Tenochtitlan lay in ruins, the last Aztec Emperor was in chains, and Spanish authority over the native peoples had been definitively asserted. With the colourful personalities – Cortés, Malinche, Pedro Alvarez, Cuitláhuac, Cuauhtémoc – driving the narrative, and the vivid differences in uniforms, weapons, and fighting styles between the rival armies (displayed using stunning specially commissioned artwork), this is the fascinating story of the collapse of the Aztec Empire.

Legends born in the shadows of ruin. The adventurer’s paradise of Haven flourishes, while a dark power within the adjacent ruins of Parlainth stirs. Parlainth was once Thera’s crown jewel in Barsaive, but the opulent city was brought low during the Scourge. When Namegivers first returned to the world, a group of adepts came together to found a town on the ruin’s borders. From this town, countless young heroes have embarked on quests for fortune and glory. Nearly five years after the end of the Second Theran War, more heroes than ever before flock to the chaotic frontier town. The troll explorer-turned-mayor, Torgak, is getting on in years. The Association of Unaffiliated Explorers agitates for fair and balanced elections to appoint his replacement. The dwarf merchants of Throal and vested Theran interests eye the changing market hungrily. With so many looking to Haven’s political future, it has fallen to private interests, the Adventuring Companies of Haven, to ensure that Barsaive’s next generation of heroes do not fall to ignoble fates. This sourcebook provides a description of Haven’s history and lays out its prominent players as of 1517 TH. It provides additional rules and guidelines for players as well as gamemasters who wish to participate in the Earthdawn community’s Legends of Barsaive adventures that are run at various tables around the globe. This text also provides guidelines for running Legends of Barsaive adventures as a campaign at your home table. In addition to the revised and expanded Haven Guidebook, this book collects the first eight Legends of Barsaive adventures: Toys in the Attic, Lip Service, Separation Anxiety, That Which Was Lost, Games of the Hungry, Glass Houses, Heavy Metal Queen, and Brain Scratch.
