A Darker Path to Justice

What may have started as a noble fight for virtue has led many down a darker path for justice.

In the realm of Victarius, where the echoes of a new war ring louder with each passing day, the threads of newfound destiny weave a tapestry of conflict, betrayal, and vengeance.

At the heart of this chaos stand two figures once bound together by generations-long loyalty, now torn asunder by the tyranny uncovered by eyes not meant to see more than the shroud placed in front of them. King Ivan Scott grapples with the demons that haunt his maddening mind, and Lady Belva Montarian stands at the precipice of a new destiny, one she did not choose and is hesitant to hold onto. As her new title of Queen of the People pushes her farther down the path her own actions forged, she begins to worry- will her new desire for revenge consume her, overshadowing her quest for justice?

Within the hallowed halls of The King's Keep, insidious forces conspire to seize power and force a new tide of change, their plots threatening to plunge the realm into more chaos. King Ivan's grip on reality slips with each passing day, while the Lords of Odessin and Lord Tyrrian the Tyrant scheme and plot, their ambitions casting a shadow over the Council chambers they ally themselves in. Amidst the turmoil, Sister Ora, bound by chains both real and internal, discovers allies in the unlikeliest of places as secrets long buried rise to the surface.

In the north, Lady Kathilla Edgel continues her restless campaign against The Odessians, determined to reclaim the holy land that once belonged to her people. But they face fiery opposition from Madam Fury and her Dragons, who will stop at nothing to protect what they believe is also rightfully theirs. Amidst the clash of steel and the roar of flame, new challenges will be placed at both warriors' feet, challenges that may require them to lay down their swords against one another.

In a world where justice is but a fleeting illusion and revenge the only currency worth trading, the line between hero and villain blurs, and the consequences of every action, and inaction, become all the more dire.

The fate of the kingdom now sits on a sword's edge, begging for each leader to choose a side for it to fall. Only time will tell which side is chosen, and where it will lead.

For when justice and vengeance become one, the path ahead will be shrouded in darkness.
