A fractured kingdom. A hidden lineage. A legacy of fire.
Aethelgard, a kingdom on the brink of collapse. The King has passed and leaves behind a dangerous power vacuum filled by a grieving queen trying to protect their inexperienced child-prince son. A council of corrupt nobles circles like vultures, using blackmail and political gridlock to strip every bit of power they can from the boy. With the capital is consumed by this internal struggle, the outer military outposts and militia have been completely abandoned, cut off from all funding and reinforcements.
The consequences are grim. A highly organized bandit syndicate has formed, taking control of all the southern trade routes, making travel extremely dangerous. Worse, formerly isolated gnoll tribes have begun to unify into a single massive warband. Their raids wipe out increasing amounts of outlying homesteads every day they go uncontested. Surrounded on all sides and abandoned by their rulers, the commonfolk are on the verge of open rebellion.
Amidst this chaos, your party have managed to land one of the few paid contracts left in the realm: a job to hunt down this warband leader and stop the slaughter. However, what starts as a simple monster hunt will quickly pull you into something much darker, as you uncover a dangerous political plot underlying the entire crisis.
