The book of Artemas concerning men, and the things that men did do, at the time when there was war

"The Book of Artemas" by Andrew Cassels Brown is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The text presents a chronicle of events and characters from the land of Eur during a time of great unrest and war. Central to the narrative is Willi, the crafty ruler of Hu, and his son Mud, whose ambition propels them into conflict that shapes the fate of their land. The opening of the book introduces us to Artemas, a scribe chronicling the state of the land of Eur. At the beginning, peace reigns, but Willi is consumed by envy and ambition, leading him to seek out the wise man Bern for advice. The narrative explores the corrupt and ambitious nature of Willi and Mud as they devise a plan for war, while also hinting at the rising tensions and the eventual turmoil in the land. Themes of ambition, power, and the human condition in the face of conflict are established early on, setting the stage for the unfolding drama of a society on the brink of war.
