"when a king twice royal in blood and bone is born, he alone shall take up the sword and sit the throne"
Seven years has our land been without king or queen to lead and guide it. Druid and monk shout at commoners on the streets, each laying claim to our damned souls. High lords and would-be kings soak good, tilled earth with the blood of soldiers, each wanting the power and wealth of the throne. Britain is divided, the pagans retreating to their sacred glades while good Christians fear to step through their doors.
In a time of greatest need, the son of the Dragon has returned to Camelot. Bearing Excalibur, the fabled blade of Avalon, Arthur Pendragon has made a claim of blood to the throne. By way of a prophecy spoken by Uther on his deathbed, Arthur has been declared High King of Britain, the boy king destined to unite the country under God.
But not all are happy with their new High King. Many who hold to the old ways have had their lands taken, gifted to kings more sympathetic to Camelot. Uther's Dragonguard, once loyal to the High King and his country, have deserted Arthur, naming him a traitor - a corruption of his father's love for all people, Christian and pagan.
"under the vernal sun, he will marry a queen crowned in gold, and mark the end of the old ways in blood"
