Daedus is an exp-priest turned soldier. For a decade he has led the
dwindling Markan IVth Cohort across the Frostmarches as Praefect
and fought against the barbaric hordes of the Augur Potentates. An
Imperial Courier arrives unexpectedly, bearing orders to return to
the capitol at once. Upon their return, it quickly becomes clear
someone in the Markan Senate is setting the stage for a coup and
Daedus and his men are pawns in this power struggle. Their
situation further worsens with the arrival of Adzutucoatl, a
tattooed emissary from the distant jungles of a nearly forgotten
land: Mictlan. He has come to Marka bearing rare gifts in exchange
for troops to wage war against enemies every bit as powerful as the
Augur Potentates. Intrigued by the developments within the capitol,
Adzutucoatl takes a powerful interest in Daedus and the IVth and
arranges a meeting upon his ship. What transpires sets into motion
events that lead Daedus and his stalwart companions on an epic
journey into the heart of darkness. Here they must conquer the
treachery of sorcerers and the unforgiving nature of their new
environment. Only then will they come face to face with the true
nature of their mission: to face the wrath of a vengeful
demi-goddess intent on breaking free of her earthly prison and to
stop her from resurrecting her dark empire with her weapons of
wildersteel.
