| The Glorious Holy Kingdom of Veidar is under siege by an enemy not seen out of their own lands for over a thousand years - The Orcs, those who have lived in the exile of the black deserts since time immemorial, for a crime nobody remembers. They have lived in the shadow of First Mountain, where it is said the Gods emerged from under the earth to create all other races... Now Orcish legions have poured over the ancient borders, laying waste to frontier settlements and cities with cruel abandon. While the Elves fall back to their forest homes and prepare a desperate defense, Veidar's forces are smashed to pieces in the borderlands. Their leader is slain, and the survivors retreat towards the holy city in a shambles. King Veidar XII, too infirm to command the army, sends his young and inexperienced son to lead what many believe will be the Kingdom of Veidar's last stand... |
