Publisher's blurb: The Splendour of Shényu originally appeared in The Tékumel Journal, and revealed the inner workings of the fierce reptilian non-humans called the Shén, and their lands to the south of Livyánu and near the Spouting Mountains of Tékumel. Also ncluded is the fascinating travelogue of Hirikása hiTu’únmra, a Tsolyáni officer who was sent to negotiate for gold in 2,342 A.S. – and what happened to him in the hot southern lands where these ferocious non-humans dwell. This article is required reading for those who want to include the Shén in their Tékumel campaigns.
