Kategorie: Mierce

The rising power of Mierce troubles more than just its Anglecynn and Seaxan neighbours. In a world beset by racial hatred and ideological strife the unwelcome gaze of the old gods and the attention of their brooding, implacable king in the heart of Angle-land is foolhardy to ignore, for the proud warrior-king of Mierce - Penda the Bloody-Handed, named king-killer and prince-slayer and head-taker - would destroy any who would take the rich lands of the Miercna from the wolfborn. Thus it is that Penda and his armies are abroad, allying with the Brythoniaid or shattering the raids of the Norse, bringing death to the Fomoraic or slaughtering the servants of Kernunnos, for Penda knows that to defend Mierce, he must defend the kingdoms of all Bryten whether they desire it or not.
