The Last Straw
Description
Explore an alternate world where magic and science go hand in hand. Aelfraed a soon to be detective, and currently over stressed university student is having a very bad weekend.
Expect: Worldbuilding, characters out of their depth, family drama, supportive and distinctly less supportive family, murder, deception and the beginning of an arc of self discovery for our protagonist!
Aelfraed breaks under the pressure of his life at university and the heavy handed gaze of his father. Slipping out in the late hours he takes a spur of the moment trip to see his brother, Aethelric. He hopes for just some time to get away from the stress however his luck is severely off. A weekend to clear his head turns into stumbling upon the attempted murder of a baker, the appearance of his father and the worst dinner party of his life.
