Can't change fate - unless your magic is strong... In a mysterious realm, a once-great city was split into two by a monstrous earthquake. One part was thrown up upon a high cliff and the other left in its shadow on the ground. Years and years passed and the people on the ground fell deeper and deeper into poverty, disease, and other misfortune. Urged on by their ruling priest class they grew to believe that all their misery and suffering was caused by the ones on the high cliff, their twin city in the skies. But who, if anyone, lives there now? The people don’t know. The people don’t care. They are set on attacking the cliff and taking what they believe is theirs. An army is formed and mercenaries from all the known parts of the world come to share the loot. A noble lady in the lower city is determined to stop this madness. She has found an ancient prophecy. It says that the land will be healed again and that prosperity and order will be restored. If only she does what the prophecy says... But is the prophecy to be trusted? Things do not quite turn out as the lady imagined. Mayhem follows and into this, a group of more or less innocent characters is drawn. This is part one of four in the first chronicle of The Crannog Saga, and it is a fast-paced and gritty fantasy tale...
