After the final great battle of the gods, the island of Lodoss and its kingdoms have been plunged into war for millennia. When a fragile peace and unity finally appear to be within reach, a new darkness stirs. An ancient witch awakens, determined to preserve Lodoss by sowing political turmoil among the kingdoms and preventing any one power from achieving central control. A diverse party of six young champions, led by the young warrior Parn, must stand between this threat and Lodoss’s descent back into the darkness of war and destruction.
