Delivering the message to The Thirty is the Earl of Bronze's daughter Virae, who encounters and falls in love with Regnak (Rek), an ex-army officer turned wanderer looking to flee the imminent war. The Thirty are led by an albino priest named Serbitar and his mentor, Abbot Vintar. But the Drenai army has dwindled during the reign of Lord Abalayn, and the Delnoch garrison has been reduced to less than ten thousand men, under the leadership of Abalayn's incompetent nephew Orrin.ĭelnar, the ailing Earl of Bronze, calls upon the aide of Druss the Legend, an ageing hero coming out of retirement for one final battle, and The Thirty, an order of warrior-priests who serve the Source by fighting to the death when summoned to a worthy cause. If the fortress can hold for three months, the Drenai may be able to muster a force capable of repelling the Nadir invasion. The fate of the Drenai empire hinges on the defence of Dros Delnoch, a fortress guarding a mountain pass into Drenai lands. The Nadir horde of Ulric the Uniter has conquered several northern nations and prepares for an invasion southward into Drenai territory with an army of 500,000 warriors.
