Storyline

Three years have passed since Count Uria’s schemes. The Vanquishers of the Nine Hordes have long since gone their separate ways, yet life in Aventuria continues. Cassia, a young woman of noble blood, has but one ambition: to sit upon the Shark Throne, no matter the cost—even if only for a single day. However, two obstacles stand in her way. First, she is confined within the cold walls of a dungeon, and second, a man already occupies her throne: Marwan. Diplomacy and politics mean little to her, so she opts for a more... direct method. She aims to escape her prison and depose Marwan to seize the throne for herself. To do so, she must find powerful allies. She must enlist an army of mercenaries and reunite the Vanquishers of the Nine Hordes under her banner. Seems like a sound strategy, doesn’t it? But tell me, how clever must one be to slip past the dungeon’s bars, and how bold must one be to rally the most dangerous riffraff the realms have to offer?
