THE WORLD OF GUILD
INTRODUCTION
The tales
you will discover within the pages of The Vagabond of Limbo and the

and there are only three of them in all. This is the reason why information
on that fabulous universe is so patchy and incomplete, and why we thought

an easier and more pleasant read for you.
We shall start with a report on all we know about the Empire of the
GUILD, that huge entity ruling all sorts of planets and creatures. Then
we shall explore some of the most typical civilizations of the Empire
