The Northern Fire

"I find that I sent wolves not shepherds to govern Ireland, for they have left me nothing but ashes and carcasses to reign over!" Elizabeth I

Ireland in the 16th century is a land divided. It's a struggle between old and new, Gael and Saxon, chieftain and crown. It's the twilight of the Gaelic lords as their power comes under threat and they're given a simple choice. To kneel and submit to the crown or be destroyed.

The power of the Desmonds has already been broken but across Ireland, the seeds of rebellion are being sown and all eyes are on Ulster, that last bastion of hope. Never before conquered and the most alien of all the four provinces, its fate is to be changed forever in the war to come.
