The Siege of Tryon Keep

A plague has struck the Paladin Order!

Tryam has arrived at the paladin temple in Secundus to join the ranks of the legendary brotherhood of the warriors of light. However, soon after he begins his training, heralds bring shocking news: An Abyssal-born plague is devastating paladin temples across Medias, leaving no survivors.

After the destruction of Arkos, the fallen Abbot Monbatten has been wandering the Corona Mountains, begging Aten to take his life. When the great dragon Valthryx grabs him in her claws before death claims him, Monbatten believes he has been spared for a grand purpose. Taken to the temple of the Dark God, Terminus, Monbatten is reborn in dragon flames. Now under the guise of the disfigured sage Janus, Monbatten is ordered to destroy the Paladin Order, the only force on Medias hindering Terminus's return.

Tryam, desperate to find a cure for the malady that even the wisest among the paladins cannot discover, recalls an ancient relic possessing divine healing properties thought lost to history, the enigmatic Tear of Aten.
