Hardengrad

The sun shone down on Hardengrad. It was summer, and today was just like any other day. The peasants went about with their work, the soldiers went on their daily patrols, and the tyrannical King Geth watched over all. His rule was a terrible one, for he overtaxed his citizens, arrested any who spoke against him, and once a month he would have a large group of randomly picked women escorted to his castle to never be seen again.

But, that doesn't worry you, does it? King Geth only harasses his own citizens, and you are an adventurer, coming from a different country. Though King Geth is cruel, his kingdom is a thriving one, and who are you to say what he should or shouldn't do? You should simply mind your own business, which, up to now, you have been doing. But, in this country, you'll soon find that a tyrannical king is not the only adventure to be had.
