About this listen

Rathen, a former Captain in King Delvant's army, retired to a quiet backwater town after the kingdom's forces were dissolved following the king's sudden death. Trying to forget his problems with the copious use of strong ale, he is approached by the emissaries of a powerful lord to lead a team of fighters, healers, and mages to dispel brigands from his lands. Rathen quickly recruits his best friend Bulo, an ex-gladiator and landlord of the local tavern, to assist him. The two join other members of the group and begin to hear stories of magical creatures and numerous dead in the land they are supposed to cleanse. Despite this, they head for Ghrakus Castle, and on the way they learn of the Castle's dark and mysterious history. Finally arriving at Ghrakus, where the full horror of their task becomes clear, they realize that their chances of returning home were indeed very slim and that betrayal awaits them.
