Blood once turned the wheels of empire. Now it is money. A new age of exploration and innovation has dawned, and the Empire of the Wolf stands to take its place as the foremost power in the known world. Glory and riches await. But dark days are coming.

But with the road south beset by war and the Empire on the brink of supernatural catastrophe, soon there may not be a world left to save...
