About

The Kingdom of Myrtana has been invaded by an implacable horde of orcs.

King Rhobar II, seeking vast amounts of enchanted ore for crafting potent weapons, manages the Khorinis mines using every incarcerated individual. To ensure they don’t flee, he orders his top magicians to establish a protective magical boundary. However, things take an unexpected turn. The magic becomes unruly, leading to a rebellion that transforms the mines into a lawless domain now governed by the most brutal convicts.

In this scenario, the monarch finds himself compelled to discuss terms with the freshly appointed mine proprietors, as the internal conflicts among various mine groups escalate. However, what nobody anticipates is that the appearance of a mysterious captive will completely transform all circumstances.
