Collezione: Cant

The first kingdom of the Jutes, and the last remaining human kingdom, is that of Cant, a place of striking countryside and beautiful coastline beset by enemies on all sides; and yet its stronghold in Cantwarebarg - from which King Eorcenberht rules with an iron fist - is one of the strongest in Bryten. Eorcenberht knows that, in the power of the beetles and the strength of the Wihts, his kingdom will endure; but his problems are many, for the Jutes are few in number and they must defend long stretches of land to the west, land that both protects and leads to the great barrows of Wihtbarg. For without the Wihts, the Jutes cannot defend against the fanatical Seaxna - who consider the Wihts to be an abomination - and against the constant raiding of the Kernewek and the Franks and the Norse.
