His existence could be summarized as tedious, at least it could, before he received a summons from the king that changed his life forever and sent him out into the harsh and unforgiving frozen north of Neeska and towards the mages.Darcy was more used to bookkeeping than holding a sword but as he makes his way towards the tower, an invading barbarian army edges ever closer. Will he live up to be half the man his father was and step forward as the saviour of the city he calls home? Or will Oakenfall be swept aside by the mighty arm of the Poles and their vicious leader Ingaild?The dankest taverns in Oakenfall are ripe with whispers, talk of consorting with demons, and an ancient relic of untold power.
