A Cross-Continental Journey

 

Gauntlet runners: the vessels of your journey

 

The wilderness between towns is no place to casually stroll into—it’s a perilous zone infested with bandits and monsters. To traverse the wilderness, you’ll need a magic-powered vehicle known as a gauntlet runner. Think of it as your massive mobile base to command. With your gauntlet runner in tow, hit the road as you travel to each stop of your campaign to become king.

With lots to enjoy in your gauntlet runner, it’ll be a key part of your experience!

Stop by Various Destinations Throughout Your Journey

 

The Old Castle Town, Martira

 

In contrast to the Royal Capital’s splendor, Martira is a humble and idyllic town known for its larvabased dishes and heartwarming hospitality. While it might seem like a calm town, its people harbor unease for the giant sandworms that roam the nearby desert. With incidents of threats against Martira’s townsfolk, you and your party will need to step up and give them a hand.

However, beneath the splendor of the royal capital lies an underbelly of rampant discrimination, wealth disparity, and social injustices. Executions take place in its back alleys and the homeless are left to squat on the streets. The city teeters on the verge of chaos, poised to erupt at any moment.
