Langward woke before dawn knowing that before nightfall nothing would be the same. After months of careful planning, the time had finally come.

King Burkhart was the last in a long line of ancient kings, but it was time for a new bloodline to take the throne."I give you one last chance to change your minds," he said after his men had assembled.
