The Fables of Ealdraed

Episode #2 "The Aberstowe Brethren"

Episode 02Beset upon the road by a trio of brigands in the borderlands of Sæxyny, the veteran mercenary, Ealdræd of the Pæga, fetches up at the Cloister of Aberstowe, the Abbey of a religious order devoted to arcane wisdom and obscene sacrifice. At first his sudden arrival is afforded a honeyed welcome for the Brethren are in need of one such as he in their current blasphemous undertaking. The soldier of fortune is to test the mettle of the thing called Bánfæt Wæpenbora, the unholy knight-cadaver, resurrected from the void where commands Wihvir Lord of Hálsian, to wreak annihilation upon the enemies of the siblings of Aberstowe for the greater glory of their order, or so the faithful of the Brethren believe.
