From bonebreaker in the employ of a heartless moneylender, to fugitive from the law, life isn't easy for a gutter-born sellsword like Geth. When one final injustice lands him on the run, his next stop is the hanging tree, until he pledges his blade to an embattled king.

Winner takes all. The tribes may have been expelled, but with half the realm in the hands of a usurper, the fate of Geth's new home hangs in the balance.
