The ancient enemy has returned, bringing war back to all of the kingdoms. Wizards from across the land have been summoned to the Convocation, held at High Emerath, stronghold of the mages. There they gather to take part in an ancient rite, known as the Gambit, where the victor becomes the next war mage. Only those wizards with the highest skill in Spells, Incantations, and knowledge of the rare Magical Components can hope to claim the honour of being the war mage. Only one can win the title of Grand Siege Magus!
