Delving into the darkest history of a cold land, where the remnants of the kingdom’s army have scattered, and a foreign conqueror has decided to turn the entire country into black soil so that no enemy could ever find footing there again. This band of invaders has declared the spoils of war their right, plundering everything that can be carried off. They mercilessly burn down homes, rape, kill, and with cruel and gruesome imagination, torture people of all ages, regardless of gender or status. The children who survive are taken to distant lands as slaves.
The church bells, treasured possessions of the villages, have been hidden deep in the waters and the depths of swamplands so the conquerors will not find them.
Some have managed to escape into the depths of the forests, constructing hidden shelters. There, bitterness, hatred, and despair reign, as everything that was once beloved has now been crushed and destroyed.
