Strange druidic forces are calling the Duke of the Bretons to rebel against the Bald King and his wicked servants.From dizzying heights of the spirit to the lowest quagmires of lust and apostasy, from the Twelve Paladins to half-forgotten horrors, journey across the sagas of a vanished, glorious dark age, to discover the unexamined mythology and folklore of Medieval France.
