Green_Hilltop: Yep! The pilgrimage gave it away, right? :)
Yes indeed ;)
Let's
start: My dear king Ragnar was attacked by local wizard Guthbert which in turn named me a culprit. That is why I absolutely had to run away with a few servants for... hunting in the farthest borders of my kingdom. We found a narrow passage there with a portal and somehow managed to place an invisible barrier behind us, so no one can find us. A new uncharted land appeared in front of our eyes, the sun shined differently, the air was more humid, even the gravity felt stronger here.
I don't have any other choice but to conquer new land under my banner. I'm a rightful ruler!
