You are Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Drawn into a raging civil war, you must helplessly watch as invaders storm your village and slaughter your friends and family. After narrowly escaping the brutal attack, you reach for your sword to fight back. Avenge the death of your parents and help repel the invading forces.

Bohemia, located in the heart of Europe, is rich in culture, silver, and sprawling castles. The death of its beloved ruler, Emperor Charles IV, has plunged the kingdom into dark times: war, corruption, and discord tear apart this jewel of the Holy Roman Empire. One of Charles's sons, Wenceslas, has inherited the crown. Unlike his father, Wenceslas is a naive, selfish, ambitious monarch. His half-brother and King of Hungary, Sigismund the Red Fox, senses weakness in Wenceslas. Feigning goodwill, Sigismund travels to Bohemia and kidnaps his half-brother. Without a king on the throne, Sigismund is now free to plunder Bohemia and seize its wealth.

Amidst this chaos, you are Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Your peaceful life is shattered when a mercenary raid ordered by King Sigismund himself lays your village to waste. By bittersweet fate, you are one of the few survivors of this massacre.

Without a home, family, or future, you find yourself in the service of Lord Radzig Kobyla, who is forming a resistance against the invasion. Destiny pulls you into this bloody conflict and thrusts you into a raging civil war, where you help fight for the future of Bohemia.
