The Fall of Cadoria (Gods and Runes)

With the forces of the Empire of Thargoẑa are massing on the border of Cadoria, Prince Tyrran is once more called upon to defend his country.

With his small army, he decides to make a stand at Heldwr Fort against the empire's army and its vain commander Chema of Gravia. However, Something is wrong. Something is seriously wrong. His scouts are failing to return and his spymaster has gone missing.

When the empire attacks, a fierce and bloody siege unfolds. The stench of death and battle is unimaginable. Yet for Prince Tyrran, the carnage defies reason. Nothing leading up to the battle made sense until an act of betrayal and treachery brought about the Cadorians' downfall.

As the defeated and bewildered Prince Tyrran faces the truth of the betrayal, he and his army have suffered, the Thargoẑans force him into an agonising choice-betray his country or watch it burn.

Struggling to cope with his defeat, the despondent Prince Tyrran must uncover the traitor's identity and deliver his vengeance.

His honour demands it.
