"This was the game the Shadowlands played."

–Robert Denton III, "Better to be Certain"

Many horrors await those who venture south of the Kaiu Wall into the dreaded Shadowlands. Only those properly prepared stand any chance of surviving. Crab Clan warriors are trained to survive these harsh conditions since birth. They know to always be prepared for the horrors that await them, to always expect an attack, and that it is always better to be certain than dead.

Fantasy Flight Games is proud to present “Better to be Certain” by Robert Denton III, a new fiction set in the world of Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game.
