"Once upon a time... how all legends with Kingdoms and bravery begin." "But this is not a fairy tale." "This is the story of an Empire in ruins." "And his forgotten Princess." "The Kingdom of Eleysia was celebrating the coronation of its Princess Riese... when a wicked religious group called The Sect, storm the Palace, slaughtered the royal family... and place the Queen's cousin Amara on the throne." "The new Empress quickly begin conquering the world." "As for the Princess, well, she mysteriously survived the bloody coup, and now, instead of living the fairy tale, Riese was fighting for her life." "Amara panicked by the news that the Princess was still alive, ordered The Sect to hunt Riese down and finish her off." "Trennan." " You sent for me, Empress." " Has Herrick returned?" "Sorry, your Highness, he's still away from the palace." "Have we any word about his mission?" "No, not yet." "I see." "Order Herrick's return immediately." "Amara." "Did you not hear me?" "I said send for Herrick!" "Now!" "Yes, your Highness." "Thank you." "You may go." "No one would take Amara's throne." "Riese was flooded with memories of her lost family." "Her mother Kara, her father Ulric and her younger brother Arkin." "They were gone." "She was alone in the world." "Well, nearly alone." "Having a wolf by her side gave the exiled Princess a fighting chance." "Even if they didn't speak the same language." "Riese wasn't the only one taking on The Sect." "A group of supposed heretics and commoners calling themselves "The Resistance"... were fighting to take their land back from Amara." "Their leader Rand knew for certain that the Princess was alive, and finding Riese was his personal crusade." "Rand!" "They are horsemen everywhere." "You said that the Aliza's army will be here." " I was misinformed." " They're butchering us..." " we have to fall back." " We're not going anywhere." "We have to." "This is madness." " That's enough." "I'm ordering a retreat." " Garin you are out of line!" " No time to be a coward." " We do not run." "We fight." "Sir." "The Empress orders your return to Asgard." "She is injured." "Search the nearest township." "I'll return shortly." "Fenrir, in the woods." "Wolves used to be part of the Eleysia Royal guard." "Trained to fight alongside the troops." "When Amara took over she worried that wolves were too symbolic of the old Kingdom." "And declared that they should be executed on sight." "So Riese had to enter the township alone." "I'm sorry." "We're not accepting any travelers at this time." "We're in the middle of our harvest." "Good day."
