To turn back the tides
of war, Queen Mother sent her most trusted warriors on a perilous journey
across the Great Sea. But the elves were betrayed by one of their own. Only
a handful survived the ambush that followed, only two reached the far
shores. But they did not find quick allies. They found a kingdom under
siege and a shattered alliance. The elves proved themselves to the men that
defended Quashan'. They along with the mysterious Xith, the would-be mage
Vilmos, Princess Adrina and their friends helped turn the battle in Great
Kingdom's favor.
For their support,
the elves were granted an audience with the king. Yet great deeds could not
undo the past, or change the prejudice of men. Elves and men are enemies,
as it has been through time. The Alder King had his own concerns. The
kingdom alliance was shattered. An ally, and a great king was dead. War
between the kingdoms seemed inevitable. If there was any hope of restoring
the alliance, he must rid the kingdom of the enemy's spies. But was such a
thing possible without the backing of those he needed the most?
