Silver Oath

Dark times have come to Ostrar, the land of the Sun. The great ruling dynasty has fallen. A new king, Hindsdrow the All-Knowing, ascends to the throne, but he cannot stop the Time of Troubles. For in the Lunar kingdom, a Pretender declares herself the daughter of the deceased sovereign, and with her army, war comes to Ostrar. In search of salvation, Hindsdrow turns to the mercenaries from the Wasteland of the Ice Volcanoes. Their leader will have to fight side by side with the king's nephew, and this will lay the foundation for a great friendship, which will one day be sung about in songs. But the young commanders do not know: there will be no winner in the war, and the enemy is not among the ranks of the Lunar army. The price of enmity is friendship, lost in the first year of misfortunes. The price of loyalty is betrayal. And the price of life is death... For fans of Jack Gelb's "Goyda"!
