The Lionsguard guild begins as a hard, practical answer to chaos. Not a tavern guild chasing glory, but an organization that feeds, houses, and trains its people. Word spreads. Coin follows. The guild grows—contract by contract, stone by stone, into the closest thing the frontier has to stability. Then a letter arrives that can’t be ignored.

During the formative years of the Industrial Revolution, English workers and artisans claimed a place in society that would shape the following centuries.

That is, until one reckless night in the tavern, when a hooded mage and a simple spell shattered the illusion of normalcy forever.

Unfortunately for Ludger, the man was also a former guildmaster.
