Yet his end is near. A new generation of young warriors has reached manhood, who care little for the victories won by their fathers. To them Artorius an ageing symbol of a bygone era. These restless young men find a leader in Medraut, the High King's youngest son. Since his return from the East, Medraut has bided his time at Caerleon. Now he steps out of the shadows to take advantage of the growing resentment and unrest against his father.
