Lord Marksman and Vanadis

Duke Thenardier sends his son Zion to raze Tigre's fiefdom of Alsace. Tigre prepares to return and defend his home, but as her prisoner, Elen imposes conditions on letting him go. Titta defends the Vorn estate while she awaits Tigre's return.

With the town safe, Elen and Tigre make plans to drive Zion's army out of Alsace. They are still outnumbered three-to-one, however, and must come up with some brilliant strategies if they are to succeed in defending Tigre's homeland.

Elen returns to Zhcted, and answers to the king for invading Brune without his permission, while Tigre tries to muster more help. Ludmila, one of the other war maidens, may prove to be an obstacle in Tigre and Elen's war against Thenardier.

When Mila abruptly leaves Rodnik, Elen fears that it spells hostilities between their two lands. Their two armies meet on a snowy battlefield, but when Mila's forces retreat to a safe haven, Elen must figure out how she is going to claim victory.

Mila and Tigre reach an understanding. A united army of men from both Brune and Zhcted is formed, led by Tigre and Elen, but it is not without its difficulties. Sofy reaches Elen with bad news, while Roland, the Black Knight, is sent to deal with Tigre.

With Tigre seriously injured, Elen takes command of his men and prepares to fight Roland's forces the next day. Mashas returns from the capital with news of the king. Tigre and Titta follow the black bow's guidance in search of greater power.

Elen is called back to Zhcted on urgent business, leaving Tigre and Ryurik in charge of 1000 of her men. Roland heads to the royal capital to plead Tigre's case before the king. A massive invasion force from Muozinel threatens all of Brune.

Elen visits Sasha, and learns that Elizaveta, one of the other war maidens, is attacking her lands over a perceived slight. Meanwhile, Mila and Tigre negotiate the terms of her assistance in driving the invading Muozinel army out of the land.

With overwhelming numbers, the Muozinellan army lays siege to the makeshift hilltop fortress, as Tigre and Mila's forces strike back. But with such a long battle ahead of them, will they be able to last long enough to achieve victory?

The battle against Muozinel behind them, the Silver Meteor Storm camps in Perche, where Regin makes a surprise announcement to Tigre and the others. With his dragons now mature, Thenardier sends his army to attack the Silver Meteor Storm.

After resting up briefly from the battle with Thenardier's army, Tigre and the others plan to make their way into the Holy Grotto beneath Artesium, to establish Regin's royal identity. However, Thenardier has other plans for them once they arrive.

Devasted by his surrogate father's loss, Tigre is conforted by Elen. Badouin shows up, and invites Regin back to see the king, who has regained his senses. However, Thenardier stands in their way, and a final showdown between him and Tigre awaits!
