War breaks out in the far north, as the Empire's oppression of the mountain people results in a terrifying backlash. With the one competent leader in the Northern Garrison assassinated, the ignorant garrison commander flings the troops headlong into a highly defended, mountainous position, with disastrous results.  Ikta and his friends are kept as part of the reserves for now, but it won't be long until they're thrust into the war as well.
However, a knight's sword 
is not a tool of murder!
!لكن سيف الفارس ليس أداة قتل
Das Schwert eines Ritters
ist kein Mordwerkzeug.
Sin embargo, la espada de un caballero
no existe para asesinar.
Sin embargo, la espada de un caballero
no existe para asesinar.
Mais l’épée d’un Chevalier
n’est pas faite
Ma la spada di un cavaliere 
non è il ferro di un assassino!
Mas a espada de um cavaleiro nunca
 deve ser usada para um massacre!
А меч рыцаря вам не орудие для убийства!
