Description

The Dark Ages are a difficult time, even for Knights of your noble upbringing. It has been more than a decade since you last returned to your old kingdom. You are one of the lucky few who were away on a mission when the old King was killed and his allies slaughtered in a bloody revolution, plunging the kingdom into the Dark Ages. Now, his successor has extended a peace offering to you and the other knights who have been hiding in exile for the past 12 years. He has offered ten of you a place in his new kingdom and, as a show of good faith, has thrown a feast in your honour. With food as scarce as it has been for over a decade in exile, you have reluctantly agreed to attend. You are also interested in seeing what has become of the other knights. There have been rumours that some went mad in exile and that others turned to religion to deal with the hard times. Either way, you have your own reasons for attending and you’re pretty sure that so do the others. As you ride into the kingdom, you notice that it has fallen into disrepair. Where once flourished luxurious estates, now lie desolate ruins. Beggars are everywhere and death carts are stacked high. Rats scavenge the ruined villages and bandits pillage shanty towns in broad daylight. You ride faster as you approach the palace. If you can survive the feast, maybe you’ll live to see your kingdom rise into prosperity once again.
