For generations the Torqye Pashalu and the Balt-Rhein Empire have stood in stern opposition to each other. Then one night, when an Imperial minister is found assassinated, the two nations are plunged into a potentially explosive situation! As the generals of Torqye’s council cry for war, Mahmut comes to discover the devious truth behind the assassination! Thus the young pasha’s battle for his country, peace and trust in his fellow man begins!
Through the use of their "warning bell" cannons, the Zaganos force has finally brought their blades to Muhl, the very throat of the Balt-Rhein Empire. With the fate of the Empire in the balance, the Hermann—the group of younger nobility whose allegiances lie with the emperor—plunge into battle. Awaiting relief from Lelederik's team of 4,000 heavy cavalry, they offer themselves as a lure on the battlefield. When the sun rises at the end of battle, who will reign supreme—Torqye, or Balt-Rhein?!
