There Will be Hundreds

It has been twenty years since the lost royal Andiin of Fjell was killed in the mountains. The Wanderlacks, led by Sitter, have rebuilt themselves and are stronger than ever before. The unruly bandits have become champions of the people by freeing slaves and fomenting rebellion. Rumors have spread that soon, the king himself will be brought low. But one man loyal to the throne may be enough to thwart their plans.

Aerligr Tape serves as the captain of a group known as the Sorgfari. At the king’s behest, they hunt and administer justice to any who violate the sacred law of Fjell. There is no deed too foul, no act too vile, that he would not stain his hands with in defense of the kingdom. If Graoungr commanded him, Aerligr would travel to the end of the world and back, all to rid himself of the stain of his family name.

When Aerligr is personally assigned to hunt and purge the Wanderlacks from the land, he sees it as his opportunity to finally earn the favor of king Graoungr. But Aerligr is not privy to the secrets of many would be allies who surround him, nor is he aware of the cunning prowess of Sitter and her Wanderlacks. To succeed in his task will demand the best of him--his skill with a blade, his ability to peer into the souls of others, and his great physical strength. Even then, he will find his faith in his gods, the Four, pushed to the very limit.

In the end, he will be forced to ask himself one crucial question: If the price of the kingdom’s prosperity is his own soul, is he willing to pay the cost?It has been twenty years since the lost royal Andiin of Fjell was killed in the mountains.
