Synopsis
As the Kingdom of Araluen braces for war against the malevolent Morgarath, apprentice Ranger Will and his friend Horace are dispatched to the neighbouring land of Celtica. Upon arrival, they find the villages eerily deserted, the inhabitants vanished. A lone, weary girl named Evanlyn reveals that Morgarath's forces have enslaved the Celts. With their mentor Gilan returning to warn the King, Will and Horace uncover a sinister plot: Morgarath plans a surprise three-pronged attack that could devastate Araluen. The duo must act swiftly to thwart this impending disaster.
