Wind from the North

Once again, the “native” village—everything is familiar… It seemed like only yesterday Ned left this place, and… here he is again. At the head of the Ard clan, badly battered by a feud. After passing through its meat grinder, people expect to rest, gain strength— but peace is only a dream. From one war straight into another. A small one—but no less bloody and terrifying. Its roots go far back into Ned’s past, but betrayal must be punished. A Place of Power! Long ago, an ancient city stood here—the stronghold of the North Clan Shirduan. Here once ruled the one whose memory has settled deep in Ned’s brain—whose magic, whose power helped him become who he is. Magic, martial arts, cunning, and courage—all mixed together in the struggle for power over the city. Shirduan, city criminals, the Ards—everything whirled in a bloody vortex of intrigues and brawls. Who survives—time will tell.
