For as long as you and your people can remember, your homeland of Mercia has been held in the tyrannical grip of "Etheldred"; a despotic sorceress who lives in a seemingly impenetrable tower in the remote icy wastelands of the north. Every seven years she sends her armies south to handpick residents from each township who will be subjected to a life of slavery, never to be heard from again. A call is sent out to masters across the country asking them to end her rule. A gnome, a wizard and a marauder answer the call. Join this band of heroes on their quest to vanquish the evil from the land and defeat Etheldred once and for all
