Story Synopsis
Bound Together by a sense of justice, a group of unlikely allies in the city of Westcrown join forces with a band of rebels with the intent of overthrowing the corrupt Westcari Aristocracy and the iron-fisted military policing of the Hellknights' organization.
Donning masks and cloaks to conceal their identities, the self-proclaimed "Knights of the Bleeding Rose" have earned a reputation for fairness and justice in the city, though their greatest challenges lay ahead.
