The story campaign

New land, no owner, and every fleet has already sailed.

You reach the beach at dawn. So does someone else.

Green Shore from above: green fields, fir woods and purple crags in a deep blue sea, mist at its far end, two boats side by side on its beach.

Chapter one · Green Shore

Chapter one · Green Shore

Outrun the son. Then his father.

Holmgard wants this land too. One man claims it, one strikes for it, one waits for it.

  • The Young Prince, a blocky low-poly bust: a pouting young man in a dark fur hat with a green jewel, a falcon at his shoulder.

    Holmgard

    The Young Prince

    A runaway third son, first to call the island his and last to settle it.

  • The Voivode, a blocky low-poly bust: a scowling man with a dark beard, in a pointed steel helm and mail.

    Holmgard

    The Voivode

    The Grand Prince's right hand, quick to strike and slow to guard his own door.

  • The Grand Prince, a blocky low-poly bust: an old man with long grey hair and a grey beard, in a gold-topped cap banded with dark fur.

    Holmgard

    The Grand Prince

    Holmgard's ruler and the prince's father, who lets you run ahead and waits for one mistake.
