"It is a thing truly very natural and ordinary, the desire to acquire..."
The Fractured Kingdoms have entered into an uneasy peace after ten years of brutal war. Now, however, indecision over who the next King should be threatens the land once again as every political power in the Kingdom jostles for position.
It's into this mess you'll enter, to step up or be stepped on. Choose your allies carefully and your enemies doubly so, because every hand not extended in friendship could be holding a knife...
NOTE: This is a very long game with a lot of roads to take. More often than not, there won't be a "right" choice for you to make, but every choice has the potential to completely alter the course of the story. Don't worry, though... there's plenty of opportunity for death as well.
