Again, the “native” village, all the familiar faces... It seemed like only yesterday that Ned left this place, and... he is here again. At the head of the Ard clan, pretty battered in the internecine war. Having gone through its meat grinder, people expect to relax and gain strength, but they only dream of peace. From one war - straight to another. Small, but no less bloody and scary. Its roots are far in Ned's past, but betrayal must be punished. Place of Power! Here once stood an ancient city, a stronghold of the Northern Shirduan Clan. Here once ruled the one whose memory settled in the depths of Ned's brain, the one whose magic, whose strength helped him become what he became. Magic, martial arts, deceit and courage - everything mixed up in the struggle for power over the city. Shirduan, city criminals, ards - all swirled in a bloody whirlwind of intrigue and showdowns. Time will tell who will survive.
