There is unrest throughout the bleeding continent of Eresmew, a land that is rife with terrifying magic and ageless creatures of old. Myths of a silent war being waged in the shadows continues to grow under the Emperor's keen eye... For there are many who seek for the tyrannical Agalmer Rudwick to be deposed from his throne of power. Assassins and invading forces have yet to succeed in removing him; it is well known that the Emperor himself is a man of manipulative magic, and he is dauntlessly guarded by the last and only dragon in the world. There is but one hope left for the empire. A shiny, new candidate in the form of a twin-soul has been discovered. He is the only man capable of taking the throne by force and taming the dragon... But one thing holds him back. A prophecy. Ancient texts from long ago have depicted a powerful Sage, and it is rumoured that she will be the unlikely key to aiding his coup... The only drawback is that she can't leave her chateau because of a blood-bond spell. She is called the Crone of Baltaire. Will these two somehow be able to overcome the hurdles of destiny and save the empire from Agalmer's bloodthirsty rule?
