Sturm Clouds

by Gilbert M. Stack

Marshal "Sturm Front" Sturm has finally reached Al-Andalus to claim the earldom of Fortaleza from the usurper who has had control of it for most of a year. Unfortunately, the usurper is not proving to be Sturm’s biggest problem. The high king’s officials in Al-Andalus are so concerned with the possibility of civil war breaking out between the two claimants that they are trying to stop Sturm from doing anything that might actually permit him to take control of his lands. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the southern empire of Ahl-Alnaar is also showing interest in the situation, as the usurper shares their faith and might help to bring the whole province of Al-Andalus back under southern control. With every hand against him, Sturm will need to draw on everything he learned in Steil Pass and Hekt if he is to secure Fortaleza and preserve the high kingdom. As the storm clouds gather, all of Kriegsturm is bracing for the deluge.
