Story :
You find your self in Thundihr, a island off the coast of Empereth. King Lamnus IV rules this island and is staying in his keep at Luni to oversee the seige in Galdor. He grew up in Empereth and inherited rule from his father Lumnus "The Wise" who rebuilt much of the city after the Mages Rebelion in the fourth age. Unlike his father, Lamnus is ill tempered and spoiled. He has however gained a reputation for beeing a great millitary leader, because of his many impressive victories. He is guarded at all times by his legendary Kingsguard and the Thidir, the origin of the Thidir is unknown.
The island of Thundihr is difficult to grow food on and the city of Luni relies heavily on food imports. Further more the island is inhabited by a resurgence of Ogres, Thought to be extinct after the death of their king Morthus in the failed Ogre conquest. There is also rumors of a dragon and a army of Dergedir merceneries hired by Galdor in an atempt to draw forces away from the seige and give some momentary relief.
