Synopsis ~
The Earth is shaking and splitting as the forces
from the North draw nearer. The Ice Dragon Riders are speaking to the land, and
more fire mountains awaken in the Bog. Rohan seeks to join forces with Tusser,
leader of the Bog-folk, as Queen Ysa raises an army to clear the Bog. War draws
closer until even the Queen cannot deny it any longer. Raids from the North
increase and for the first time, the Riders of the Ice Dragons appear. It is
time for the Queen to give up her game of pitting one faction against another.
Four great armies assemble and they all march under the same banner. Though
they do not and cannot represent the Four Trees, this is nevertheless seen as a
good omen. Many good men from all four armies fall in battle, yet the Great
Foulness is still at large. Is the combined might of the four powers enough to
free the land from evil?
