Meanwhile, in the north, the Godking's demise has ignited a brutal civil war in Khalidor, prompting a desperate faction to attempt the resurrection of the goddess Khali herself. This reckless act unleashes volatile powers, setting the stage for a continent-spanning conflict where seven armies converge, poised to either save or utterly destroy.
