Is it possible to stop the flywheel of the unstoppable war machine of the Scarlet Ax Empire? Can. If you listen to the Guardian's Prophecy and return the once expelled Creatures to Aelion, exposing your world to mortal danger... But in order for the return of the original enemy not to become the greater of two evils, a motley company must gather in a small fortress far in the south of Aelion, united one goal and welded together by a common Trouble. The daughter of a king poisoned by his eldest son... A clown on the run... A prophet from another world... All roads lead to the Future... But how can they find out what awaits there, beyond the horizon?
