Defeating the invaders from overseas wasn't the end to a problem, but rather its beginning. Argrave's divine opponents have taken root in an empire that has prevailed for millennia to carry out an unrelenting barrage upon him and all his people. With a severe numerical and technological advantage, this foe would be nigh impossible to defeat under normal circumstances. Argrave can't impose the will of his small kingdom upon this vast empire, but perhaps all this dragon needs is a change in attitude. Argrave travels overseas, carrying the banner of a claimant.

Problems are rarely as they appear on the surface. Argrave's dealt with all the surface has to offer, and now has to deal with that beneath it; specifically, that which lives there.

The battle promises to be more than a simple struggle for victory. It has become bitterly personal, both for the sake of vengeance and the protection of loved ones. Even if Argrave can win, he isn't certain he can do so without loss. But the table has already been set, the die have already been cast, and the war has begun. All that remains is seeing everything to completion.
