The Kingdom of Éirigh is fraught with political unrest after the murder of the entire royal family just one generation back. With the death of the Traitor King, one Laird will attempt to join the flip-flopping nobles in another coup for the crown, while some believe that there may be a secret hope hidden amongst the people. Set against this backdrop, the story of Outspoken is told by a simple bond servant without a voice, who stumbles into a knighthood and finds himself surrounded by murderous plots, with danger at every turn.
