... The Run is a piss-stink town that's as awash with blood as it is with mud. It's got four seasons: Winter, Wet Winter, Bit o' Spring and Pigshite. There's no laws, but plenty of rules, and it eats anyone who dares to step into range of its dagger-sharp teeth. It loves chewing up orphans and drunks and endebted gamblers and especially those who think they're too clever to get taken in by its great lie: here, you can be anything. You can't. You'll always just be a streetrat from the Run.
