Controversy, strife, and even death. That is what awaits any who are honorable enough to consider themselves as part of the elite mercenary band called the Silver Guard. For centuries, the Silver Guard have watched over the Kingdom of Casta on the continent of Drilain. Never the type to back down from any form of confrontation, the elite group find themselves in an unfamiliar situation after conflict with an old enemy. Their numbers have been decimated and, with only two surviving members, Josef Righe and his son, Oran, are faced with a unique problem, raising the next generation of wizards, thieves, and warriors to bolster their numbers to prior glory. Adding to the turmoil, they have chosen to take in an orphaned dragonborn child of chromatic descent. A sacrilege according to the ruling bodies of the Kingdom of Casta. Dragons of any descent are not tolerated anywhere on the continent and certainly not in the kingdom they have long called home. Follow these two legendary heroes as they continue to fulfill the legacy of their famous name and the opposing forces to their will, both enemy and ally alike.
