Adventure Overview

The kingdom is falling to ruin and the sadistic Cult of the Holy Flame has converted most of your subjects, and you have had enough.

List of Scenes

Game 1 vs. Serf Milo

How long ago prosperity seems! A drought has befallen your kingdom of Vaccara, and funds are in short supply. You see the ironmonger for extra weapons, because a bandit camp has set up near the castle. Dark days indeed.

Game 2 vs. Serf Pandonia

Only a few of your most loyal servants have remained, though you can't pay them. Even the sage doesn't know how long until your fortunes turn. Your mate has become a scavenger looking for scrap metal; you need those weapons. Enemies are circling.

Game 5 vs. Serf Beatrice

Game 6 vs. Maiden Lindara

Poor but hospitable, the misfits share what meager supplies they have. At daybreak, they pack and tell you of their next destination: a distant fortress where they will entertain. You decline to go along; you still have many enemies about.

Game 7 vs. Squire Taua

The nobles that you contact decline to assist in your restoration, as they have their own problems. One night, as you travel under the protection of darkness, you come upon an altar surrounded by hooded torchbearers. A girl is lashed to the stone slab. She struggles.

Game 14 vs. Lady Celestine

Game 17 vs. Lady Floria

Game 18 vs. Gentleman Searle

Morgana tells them that you should be executed immediately, that you're evil, etc., but thankfully the bandits aren't killers, but just thieves. They take all your belongings and leave both of you tied by the roadside.

Game 19 vs. Gentleman Ivan

Boss Game 20 vs. Bonifacius, Morgana, and Vagrant

The resourceful bandits told the count of your whereabouts (for a reward, of course). They also related Morgana's hope for your death, and that the cultists would probably be attacking soon. Count Teubert and his sister pledge to stand with you during the fight.

Epilogue

You defeat Bonifacius, and his cultists scatter. With support from the count, you're able to return to your castle and begin repairs. Rebuilding seems less impossible now that [player name] has new and generous friends.
