Bellum Justum
The Grand Crusade initiated by Holy Pope Urban II has failed. The armies of the Cross has failed to retake the Holy City and was hunted by the heathens. Those who had some kind of choice defected, surrendered or simply took their life to save themselves from serving those they considered malevolent.
Lord Wren and his band of wolves were one such party, defeated and battered, they joined the heathens, not for gold but for survival. They hated their fate for it and yet, by the end of the war, they were more than friends. They had bonded by blood.
Unfortunately, that union did not last for long and Lord Wren was killed under mysterious circumstances. Now, with the loss of Lord Wren and sensing the weakness within his house, Duke Hendrickson has started a campaign against House Marchosias, his intention to either decimate or subjugate.
Young Wulfric, young and juvenile, must now rise up and meet the Duke in battle to save his title and family from annihilation. Heavily outnumbered, victory seems nigh impossible but Wulfric will fight on. If not for himself, then for his family. But unbeknownst to him, dark undercurrents sweep in the shadows, it's intention unknown and repercussion unfathomable.
Will the Young Wolf triumph against the insurmountable obstacle or will he be swept up by currents far stronger than him. Only time and fate will tell.
