**Releasing Mondays & Thursdays at 9:00 AM**The nation of Omnirius, having recently signed a peace treaty to end the War of Blood and Iron, is now faced with a devastating loss- the sudden death of their beloved High King Rhoden IV. With no natural born heir, and the nation in economic turmoil after the machine of war has bled it dry, the fate of Omnirius has never been more uncertain.  Away in the capital city of Eadenfros, the powers at be vie in the shadows for control of the Omnirian Empire. Meanwhile, in a town called Viemen, an Elfkin named Telhari finds his fate intertwined with two human children- a boy named Ellis and his best friend Marybeth. All is not as it seems in Viemen, and even as the newly created Starspawn Guild continues to grow in strength and popularity, forces begin to move that are beyond anyone's control. Inspired by a fantasy role playing campaign between friends, "Echoes of Arden" begins the unlikely story of the battle for the future of an empire!
