Bankrupt a Kingdom, Win a War

Lyrasia had never thought of herself as a gambler. Yet here she was, standing at the precipice of her greatest wager. The capital was a battlefield, but not one fought with swords and armies. No, here, fortunes were the weapons, and ruin was the price of defeat.

If she wanted to free her village and ensure a future where they weren't at the mercy of corrupt nobles and predatory merchants, she had to win. And her strategy? A war of hunger.
