Record of Grancrest War

A lone mage named Siluca and a vagrant knight named Theo make an oath as master and retainer, with hopes of bringing reform to a land riddled with war and chaos.

Theo is in control of his own territory; Siluca starts putting plans into motion; Savis plots to overtake the fledgling kingdom.

With Lassics' help, Theo's forces are routing the free Lords of neighboring territories left and right; at Siluca's suggestion Theo assumes the name Cornaro.

To make their case for joining the Alliance, Siluca heads to Valdrind.

Pledging to serve Villar, Theo heads to Artuk with Siluca; the first task Villar gives them is to govern the Forest of Eternal Darkness.

Villar throws his outgoing mage leader, Margaret, a farewell party, where the pair's feelings for each other end up on full display; Prince Kooches and Theo spar with each other; Kooches requests to capture a nearby country's castle.
