The powerful kingdom of Sigurd has slowly been conquering all the lands that share its borders, and now it has turned its voracious attention to the small, resource-rich Tyr. Tyr cannot hope to match Sigurd in strength, so in order to survive, it must rely on the intelligence, skill and cunning of its prince and his loyal knights. But should their prince fall, so too shall Tyr... Freya and her knights have traveled to Asha to rekindle Tyr's ancient alliance with the desert kingdom. But the royal family of Asha has long since capitulated to Sigurdian rule rather than risk bloody war. Will old ties and ever-increasing Sigurdian oppression be enough to convince the Ashans to risk their country and their lives?
