GEISTERBESCHW​Ö​RER - Livin' in a dark age

lyrics

The kingdom is threatened by hordes of humanoids from the far east, they are joined by a diabolical alliance. The old king is doing everything to protect the kingdom, the last outpost of civilization, but he must beware of many internal enemies who would like to dethrone him and turn to the forces of evil. You are a mercenary and you have been charged with escorting a caravan of alcohol and food for the soldiers at the front. The leader of the wagon train is a creepy corrupt merchant: he has made an agreement with a hobgoblin tribe to sell them the goods. That is why he does not like your presence and, during the five-day journey through the war-torn territory, he will do everything he can to get you out.

Almost at your destination, you fall into an ambush: you learn about the evil plan (you were the only one who didn’t know about it), but you almost get killed. When you get back on the trail of the caravan, it is too late: the goods have already been handed over to the hobgoblins, but... they are all dead! Food and alcohol were poisoned. They were destined to the army. You are horrified at the thought of how terrible the conspiracy in the kingdom circles may have arrived.

Providentially, the corruption of the caravan leader has made the conspirators’ plan fail. What a crazy spiral of corruption – you believe – typical of these dark times...
