River District

River District
The flooded district...

Duchess River ordered her own husband drowned in the Queen’s Fork. Her husband had been caught naked with their own daughter, an unforgivable crime on the River. She had no choice but to seal his fate in her own wax, she lamented as she signed the death warrant, although some said Widow River was glad to be rid of the man and take his seat. They whispered that she had perhaps, even staged the outrage herself, for Duke River had gone into the water screaming his innocence and decrying her a devil woman.
