south to handpick inhabitants from each township who will be subjected
to a life of slavery, and they are never heard from again.
A call is sent out to champions across the land pleading with them to
put an end to her rule. An elf, a wizard and a marauder answer the
call. Join this band of heroes on their quest the vanquish evil from
the land and defeat Etheldred once and for all!
