Amalea, in the year 340, 560 years after the climax of the chaos reign: The time of darkness is over. The people of Amalea are about to clean the world from the last supporters of darkness and help the gods back to their power… Thorn Gandir, ranger and knight, loses everything that ever meant something to him during the slave revolts. There he fights serving the chairmen of the senate, Antonius Virgil Testaceus. Unfortunately, he lets himself get carried away and finds the scepter of Valian for his power/hungry patron. The scepter is said to be stolen from a mighty enemy of the imperium. Together with the mercenary Chara Viola Lukullus, the war priest Telos Malakin and the barbarian Bargh Barrowson he embarks on a journey through the ashranic desert. But Thorn cannot be sure of who is a friend and who is an enemy… Nor can he tell what his role is, because chaos is just about to step out of the shadows. Dwarfs and Elves, Orcs, Centaurus, Thanatanen, Humans… Gods and Demons live in the fantastic world of Amalea. Thorn and his fellows reveal the lost knowledge of the Old World starting from the Valianian Imperium, which resembles the Roman antiquity. While the powers of chaos and order struggle for supremacy, the story’s heroes are confronted with an incredibly old power. They have to cross the borders of their familiar world to prevent Amalea from perishing. Thereby they walk the narrow ridge between Good and Evil. Amalea’s future depends on their decision – chaos or order?
