I may be a monster...
But I am not evil.

In the realm of Magika it is said that every Cape needs a Magician and every Magician a Cape. But Swordmaster Leandyr has chosen a different path -- one of sharp, tempered steel.

After nearly two millennia of service to the crown of Abydon, he seeks fulfillment beyond what his position can give him. And so, the King grants him a boon.

One Hiroh for his freedom. However, as doubt looms over the king's request, Leandyr finds himself questioning the crown's motives. And himself.

Is he willing to betray his King for the sake of a Hiroh? Or betray a Hiroh for the sake of his freedom?
