Description
Once the mighty and great Empire was destroyed. Robbers and all sorts of impostors run wild everywhere. Endless unrest and the struggle for power only make the already sharpened political crisis worse.
The elderly Emperor Aureon, from a weakening dynasty, is dying—he was never able to conceive a child with his young beautiful wife. The priestly caste, led by a strong and shameless Supreme Priest, is preparing to proclaim theocracy with himself at its head. But there is still a small hope for the revival of the empire’s former glory. According to an ancient prophecy, when the Empire is almost dead, a certain barbarian warrior from the North will appear in Valkarion—one who will be able to restore the country’s old might.
