When it was done, the devastation was far worse than anything the valley had ever seen. All of the bodies were destroyed beyond recognition. Some were nothing more than piles of ash, the rest weren't even that lucky. In fact, there was only one survivor who was found amongst the buried rubble.

          The massacre at Kimmersan was the event that started the Alliance. The humans, elves and dwarves who had been living with the orcs in an uneasy peace banded together and decided to take up arms against a common enemy.

          When the first signs of trouble began the ogres in the valley seemed to vanish as if they never were. No one can explain how that happened nor can they explain the many rumors surrounding Kimmersan, some even say the Alliance struck first and Kimmersan was only a counter-strike, others say the ogres are manipulating everything. Still others say the orcs have already killed the ogres.

          Whatever happened to the ogres matters not, for the Alliance grew strong and struck back at the Orc horde...and was crushed. If not for the interference of one lone mage, the orcs would have destroyed everything.

          His name is Torana, he created a barrier to stop the orc horde from advancing any further into Allied lands. Determining where the barrier was created the orcs attempt to break it down at its source. The remains of the Alliance are sending their soldiers to Torana's Tower as a last desperate defense against the undefeatable juggernaught. But, until the barrier is breached the juggernaught cannot move forward.

          And for now there is an uneasy peace...or is there?
