Kolomis has amassed a monstrous horde of korlak now threatening the kelvin swamps with swords and ancient deep magic. Can Koren rally the tribes of the swamp in time to repel these vicious invaders?

Maurius is a wizard on a quest for a fabled magical staff rumored to have destroyed the snowy elves in the far North. Harassed by assassins and monsters mostly forgotten to myth since the Old War he is hindered at every turn.
