Thrones are difficult to take and easy to lose. These words haunt Kline Wullmont's mind day and night. He took the throne fifteen years ago, in the dawn of the Great War, yet each day he feels it slipping further away. The desire to rule is a trait which many in Miriela posses, even those who bare the King's trust. And so, Kline Wullmont's paranoid mind searches, day and night for a way to defend that which he so desires; his throne.He gained the throne during the Great War, the first time a foreign force set foot on the land of Miriela. The Easternlund army, however, did not succeed in their conquest, for the five kingdoms of Miriela joined together, under the rule of Kline Wullmont, and defeat their common foe.Yet, it was not defeating the Easterns that prooved to be Kline's greatest challenge. Instead, it was keeping the kingdoms of Miriela, The Realm, unified. Old enemies prove untrusted, more so each day than the last. Kline knows the kingdoms of Miriela all balance their need for union with their own aspirations to rule.But rumours of a second invasion from the Easterns have reached Kline's worried ears. And the need for unity within The Realm is greater than ever before. Yet, many have already forgotten the threat of a foreign army. The lust for power plaques each kingdom and every man within it.With his throne left vulnerable, Kline turns his hopes to the old tales of Miriela, which tell of a boy born of the magic of the Unknown North. Maybe the Shadowborn will possess the strength to protect the King's rule; from both foreign and domestic threats. Yet, the Unknown North may pose a far greater threat than Kline had ever imagined.โฆ
