The Dornish are trying to be clever sellers of fear, but I think they would be wise to name their price - after all, it was a price tag that I had to give when I finally settled with a group of traveling players who were trying to get me to buy their wagons in advance of the coming winter, and I think it served them right for trying to take advantage of my generosity, I recall one of them, a young fellow with a scar above his eye, saying "a good merchant is a patient one, Ser Emmon," to which I replied "a good merchant knows exactly what they are willing to walk away from," and with that, I did just that, leaving them to find another customer for their goods.

Iron Realms is an original work of fantasy strategy. “Iron Realms” is a working project name, not necessarily the game’s final title. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any other game or franchise. The game's own lore, names, and artwork are original or used under CC0/CC-BY/OFL licences (see the in-game Credits). The community section also hosts unofficial fan tributes — quizzes and diversions made for fun, not part of the game — which reference other fictional worlds under their own labels; those are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to their respective rights holders. Pre-alpha, and built in public. Nothing is for sale. No purchases are available, no payment is accepted, and no money is taken. Any prices named anywhere on this site describe the intended model only, and the game will not accept payment until it is out of pre-alpha. Iron Realms is an early build under active development: features, balance, prices and the game's holdings and systems are conceptual, and may change, move or disappear between visits. Progress may be reset while the realm is being built. Treat anything you read here as a work in progress rather than a promise.
