The Land of Immortals Is a place of legend, a place only the bravest of the brave even dare venture. Even those most courageous, those most valiant often perish on their journey there.
Near the time of his death, King Darius, the first ruler of Arrowpact, set sail on his last journey, a journey to the Land of Immortals. With him he took 50 of the best men in the kingdom and his Horn of Victory. There, in that place of legend, he was buried with his horn. After the death of their king, Arrowpact lived in constant terror of and attack from the empire of Olympius, from where they first originated.
For a while, the huge beast of war was held at bay by famine, then civil war, then drought. Now there is nothing to hinder them and they are anxious to rid themselves of the unfavourable spot on the skirts of their nation. The armies of Olympius are large and ruthless; few can withstand their might. Arrowpact's only hope lies with the Horn of Victory.
Said to bring victory to whoever sound it in battle, it is wanted by every nation. Quest after quest was sent out to find it, however, every attempt led to devastating failure.
Out of desperation, King Salum of Arrowpact sent out a decree promising those who retrieve the horn lavish rewards. The Arrowpactians, however, aren't the only ones who want the horn; the Emperor of Olympius also plans to find the horn and expand his empire.
It is a race to the finish as both of the nation's bravest men set out to locate the horn and those at home prepare for what looks like a long and taxing battle ahead.
