Description
The nations on the continent of Alian'tir have been divided for centuries. Petty wars, squabbles over borders, and even prejudice run rampant in these times as folk go about their daily lives, yet an ancient darkness is finally ready to reveal itself again.
Alant Landsir is a squire aspiring to be a Knight of the Realm, yet fate has other plans for the young hero. After being attacked by a dark knight out of myth, Alant is thrust into a position of prophecy, rushing to save his land from the coming evil and figure out a way to unite the people of Alian'tir against this rising darkness. Thankfully he is not alone.
On the other side of the continent, the female dwarf, Falgrim, is also thrown into the middle of this growing darkness. With her new companions, she rides to the capital of Llor, yet evil is one step ahead of them. Will the heroes of Alian'tir rise to meet this ancient and powerful menace, or will the people fall to the darkness? Only fate knows what will happen When the Light Returns...
