Things are not well within the Lodrak Empire. An entire city goes up in smoke and ash, and an entire province is slowly being consumed by an ever-expanding cloud of death. But while the humans rally to contain the fallout of this disaster, they are much quicker to pin the blame for it on their elven neighbors to the north. With centuries' worth of strife and bad blood between the two nations flaring up, all out war is rapidly becoming an inevitability.

What happens when one takes a murderous psychopath and forces them to team up with a cowardly tinkerer?

Though this conflict seems inevitable and promises to be horrific, the common folk can do little but act like there's nothing wrong.

Winter looms on the horizon, threatening to deadlock the region and put a temporary halt to hostilities.

The same holds true for one intrepid adventurer - a strapping young lad by the name of Himmel. Armed with his grandfather's trusty longsword and the dream of being the strongest, he sets out on the journey of a lifetime!
