War is coming to the long peaceful land of Gorham. According to legend, Gorham once had a mighty protector, the hero Cu Culainn, a demi-god who promised to return in times of dire need. But the hero has not been needed for centuries, his story has faded to myth, worship of his divine father has given way to the modern gods of the realm, and his tomb in the Great Forest has become overgrown and all but forgotten. Under the threat of an encroaching enemy, the people of Gorham need a beacon of hope. Some have turned to stories of old and a brave party of explorers has volunteered to seek out the Tomb of Cu Culainn and try to summon the hero once again.
