Thinking all goblinkin banished from the surface, Arrio Tavar, an elven exile, leads a group of heroes to find the source of this evil, bringing justice to the murderers of the Branch Family and stopping a war that will plunge all of Askore into darkness. Arrio Tavar is accompanied by several companions who must overcome internal struggles and seemingly insurmountable odds to attempt to restore peace to the world. From Tythan Home, through the wilderness and the enemy encampments, to the ancient prison of Styginar Keep, the decisions made by the companions will determine the fate of the world.
