The Assassins Guild, the silent order. For centuries, they have maintained the balance of good and evil in Midgard, striking hard and fast whenever the scales would tip. But there are some who would prefer that Midgard be without its shadowy protectors. The dread Swordsman Sakray, guided by Odin's Beholders, has descended on the Assassins' lair, intent on slaughtering them in an orgy of blood. Should he succeed in this massacre, normankind will lose its greatest allies in the war against the gods.
