But such aid comes at a cost, and the price of victory may spell doom for all.From simple crofts, farms, and villages come the ranks of the engaging armies. A crofter hunts for his missing sons at the peril of his life and honor, while a miller follows his lord to battle, eager to rattle spears against enemy shields. Hungry and exhausted, both men will find they are but dander upon the wind in the great game of the Passions.And struggle as they might, all roads will lead them to the ruins at Baldairn Motte.
