An Irish mobster. A missing friend. Two loyalties, ripping me apart. I had a plan. Get in, get my information, and get out. Easy, right? Turns out, infiltrating the Irish mafia isn't exactly what I thought it would be. I just wanted a soldier. Someone I could flirt with to get me in the door. That's when Lachlan Crow noticed me. Problem was, he wasn't a soldier. No, he was next in line for the throne of the Irish underworld. And he was determined to hate me from the outset.

Having passed his initial assessment, Mateo has been assigned to learn the craft of the Dark Wing, the information-gathering branch of the Iron Wing Army.

The crow hissed: "Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t cut your throat here and now. One single damn reason." The prince froze with fear and said nothing. At last, his behavior was logical. His facial features had lost any order. Shivering, he closed his eyes in expectation of certain death. But then there was a whispering. "Could there be three reasons maybe?"

A plan. A sensible, efficient, and most definitely unrushed plan. Every dwarf has one. Dwarves in general are like rhinos—slow to get going, but unstoppable once they do. The dwarf named Crow is no exception. He has a plan, too: one that is properly thorough, unhurried, and carefully laid out. This is the plan he has been following since the day he arrived at the Gray Peak outpost.

The hardworking dwarf has overcome many hardships. He has clashed with formidable opponents, but managed to protect himself and his domain. However, there is no break in sight. The future is an uphill battle, filled with long hours of blacksmithing and digging, and lots of adventures and surprise encounters. Nobody knows what will happen next. For now, the outpost of Gray Peak continues to hold the fort, with no intention of surrendering to the enemy . . .

At the foot of the foreboding Gray Peak lies a desolate valley. These are the backwoods of the world of Waldyra—they offer nothing valuable to players, who rarely visit as a result. Yet this is the very place where the calm and good-natured dwarf named Crow is headed. Straight after leaving the Creche, he hopes to make a living there. This hero does not crave epic battles with monsters. Quite the contrary. He wants to be a merchant and develop his blacksmithing skills, while staying far away from fighting, long voyages, and clan squabbles.
