The Jotun’s Pact ~
This war is a sideshow. The outcome will be decided by a single weapon … A weapon that we don’t have. You’re the only one I can trust to find it.
As war with the Church State envelopes BjornsGaard and the surrounding kingdoms, one woman has the power to change the tide. Freyja must find a weapon born of magic and blood to save her love and help end the evil that reigns over the land.
In a hostile uncharted wilderness, Freyja must face the mysteries of her heritage, navigate the strange societies of the desert tribes, and risk a pact with an immortal jotun king … a monstrous being of ancient origins.
Erec must have faith in her, and trust that her strength will overcome … If she fails, all is lost.
Heirs of BjornsGaard ~ A thousand years ago, on the Day of Cataclysm, the world changed. Mountains rose from plains, continents fell into oceans, colossal tempests obliterated civilizations, and jotun, creatures of legend and superstition, rose up. The New Ice Age began, blanketing the world in snow and an army of draugr, dead warriors, walked the earth destroying every remnant of the old age.
From the ashes, the Church and the Clan BjornsGaard united humanity behind their banners, rallying knights and heroes to face this new world. Under their leadership, mankind overthrew the draugr and retook control of its destiny.
In the centuries since, the Church grew into an empire, controlling most of the continent. Though its origins were noble, the Church State grew based on greed, racism, and slavery. Only two militant orders of knights, the Hospitalars and the Tau, allied with the islands of the BjornsGaard Commonwealth stood against the Church States expanding pogroms. But during the intervening years, the Kings of BjornsGaard had grown corrupt and weak. In one night, the entire family was assassinated, opening the way for the Church to expand spreading its suppression and holocaust.
But in BjornsGaard’s farthest northern island, hope is dawning. In the Hospitalar’s Northern Compound five orphans, physically and intellectually gifted and trained by the Hospitalar knights to fight, to heal, and to reason, grow up together. With a bond tighter than normal siblings and forged stronger by pain and loss, these five will grow to challenge the Church State and accept their destiny as leaders in this new age.
