Voltron AU where our paladins are thrust into a medieval universe. After a long war between the kingdoms of Altea and Diabazaal, Allura is left alone to rule with Alfor's trusted right hand man, Coran. While Zarkon and Haggard continue their planning to take down the monarchy, Allura must find those worthy enough to take on the task of of saving the Alteans. She must find five people to gift with a special power and they must be willing to give their lives to the cause. Keith as an expert assassin with a dark past, Lance a farm boy with big dreams and a great invention, Pidge willing to take her brother's place in the war, Hunk protecting his last shred of hope to ever finding his parents and Shiro working his way up in the guard, they will all have their trials and tribulations. Will they be able to control their powers or will they fall to the might of Zarkon and his empire? (Credit to thesearchingastronaut for the cover!)
