Have you ever wanted something so bad you could taste it? The past traumas of your life seem to have all led you to this one moment, and one opportunity. While you thought you would be taking this journey alone, somehow, you found the most amazing friends to take the risks, and gain the rewards with you. That is how all four of them felt when they started their journey. For Pria, exiled from her traditionalist family of nomadic warriors, the GoulCrest Games are a chance to prove she is the best fighter Rancor Clan has ever produced. For Tayla, a starving peasant girl, they are a chance to find the safety and comfort she was denied in childhood. For Ranto, a rebel-scholar cast out of the dwarven Undergrounds, they are a chance to honor the memory of his beloved. And for Jaze, a half-Rakaron wanderer, they are a chance to finally find acceptance.
