Inside a humble tavern lies the best chance of this land's salvation. A secret meeting of five companions, unknown to the people of the land they must save. Their plan is made and set into motion... and the heroes depart.

Their journeys will take them to the highest peaks, into the wildest kingdoms, across the deepest seas, and back again, each on a quest to find mythical items of extraordinary power.

Time is precious for these Heroes, for to the south a mad wizard named Hexis has set upon the path to true power that lies at the very heart of the forces of nature. Yet as his strength grows, he unwittingly begins to twist and taint nature’s delicate balance, wreaking ever-increasing havoc around him.
