Robert De Rossi — a prince burdened with a commoner's name — was ordered by the king to march north with barely a dozen militia men. Abandoned by the kingdom and faced with the onslaught of the Sauron barbarians, he made a decision: stand before the Saurons' blades and build an army of his own.
He rallied the scattered survivors, recruited warriors, and prepared for war. With a meager force, he repeatedly crushed the Sauron invasions, forging an unstoppable, iron-blooded legion.
While the nobles and officials in the south squabbled over power and profit, De Rossi had already become a thorn in the side of the Saurons — and the only guardian in the hearts of the northern people.
His era had only just begun.
