Trapped in a country already fallen to the might of the purple cloaked armies, there seems little hope for the rescue and return of the stolen King. From a whisper on the wind, a hero steps out from the shadows for a chance to avenge the murder of his entire family. Riddled by revenge and the last of his tribe, the warrior searches to find a new home that is worthy of his skills. Known even to the purple cloak emperor as the Pilum King, wherever this man chooses to walk, death follows. Somewhere far to the south of Britannia lies the heart of a defeated people. Fueled by pride and guilt, an old Sect promises he will lead what is left of his defeated tribesmen to find all that was lost before his time is done. As the conquered people of Britannia desperately search for a symbol of hope, the power of the new empire seems to have taken its toll in both taxes and death across this once peaceful island nation. As an Emperor dies another will rise, there seems no end to greatest empire the world has even known. But even with seemingly unlimited men and unequalled power, not even Rome is prepared for the dawn of the Drakon King.
