The Age of Mercenaries. This is the name given to the Fifth Age of the land of Domrahn, ruled by the Council of the Nine Companies and safeguarded against man and beast by the mercenary companies chartered by the Council. It is an age where money rules the day, and all the machinery of life works tirelessly in support of the mercenary captains and their endeavors. And one such company was the Red Mountain Mercenary Company. Founded and Captained by Sigrid, a young woman from the north with an unknown past, with her trusted advisor and business partner Garret Hanwyr, this new company sets out in search of their fortunes. Money, danger, and magic await around every corner, while political machines move in darkness to thwart the upstart company before it can even truly begin.
