HISTORY
Follow the story of Theodoric of Achenburg, a former Crusader knight who, disillusioned by the cruelty of war, is called into action by events that he and his former comrade in arms, Ulrich of Grevel, set in motion 15 years earlier, when they had come across a fragment of an ancient artifact: Aaron’s Rod. A young monk named Malcolm shows up at Theodoric’s door, bringing him the news that the Rod holds a power not meant for mortals, and that Ulrich is now obsessed with finding the missing pieces with which to reassemble the Rod, an event that could inflict untold evils and suffering upon the world.
Theodoric undertakes the solemn task of finding the remaining relics to keep them away from Ulrich, and embarks on a journey that will take him through Europe and the Middle East. On his path he will meet many other warriors who will decide to join his cause, from the wise and elderly Rinaldo di Campidonia of the Teutonic Order, to the young and ambitious mercenary Grimilde Eidottr with his Company of Crows; each of them has their reasons to fight, but the bonds you forge with them will remain unshakable through the tribulations that await you.
