The time has come for the West to strike back. With winter setting in, Aralia and her allies prepare themselves for their greatest undertaking yet: an invasion of the Kingdom of Cairaga. But they will need help. And so, the Golden Order sends Lieutenant Fordain Abendroth and his knights to the Kingdom of Norland to gather new allies for the coming struggle. At the same time, Fordain's friend Dèscar must lead an expedition to the Far South to rescue the long-lost Tome of Alenius from the clutches of the rapidly advancing Aylar.
