The fate of all Newland lies now in the hands of Ansellus King, and his handful of trusted advisors. Whose hand shall write the final chapter of A Newland Tale?

Ansellus King, the crown thrust upon his young head too soon, is beset about by enemies... conspirators bent upon the creation of a Guild Republic, usurpers, traitors... even his own Uncle, the Portlord Ingrannus, has designs upon the throne. The yellow cockade, subversive symbol of loyalty to the Portlord, is spreading far and wide. Civil war is a real possibility.

Yet these threats are as nothing compared to the insidious and perfect strategy of chaos unleashed upon the three lobes by Newland's ancient and only enemy: the Wilden. There is a WIlden witch-man now at large in the city, the enemy's final plans to enact... plans which include the death of Newland's crown.

And the Wildenice is coming, and with it will come the Wilden Horde, greater and more powerful than at any time in history. When it arrives, all eyes will look to the King for leadership, and for the land's salvation... Ansellus KIng, who must rise above himself and his enemies, the three-lobed realm to defend.
