It seems that every week, new tales pop up of wicked monstrosities and aberrations, mutated beasts and twisted creatures, plaguing Lethuan. But where are the Hootsforce, so called protectors of the realm? Why is it up to individual bands of adventurers to tour the land and save it?

Join Conn, an ex-Paladin who's lost his faith, as he takes Sid, a young academic Ranger, under his wing, and enter a Battle of the Bands that will set them on the course of discovering the secrets of Lethuan, the land of Might, Magic, and Metal.
