Hearth is a story set in a fictionalized medieval Europe. The continent in turmoil. The Mongol Empire is invading from the East, and the Ottomans come with their allies from the South in a Jihad for the Sultan. In the midst of it all, the troubled Holy Roman Empire struggles to survive. Plagued by strife, treason, and royal intrigue, the diffrent Lords of the Empire must come together for the sake of Rome, or else face destruction. DISCALIMER: While technically an Alternative History story, this will not focus on real medival history. Instead, it will portray relations between countries through their Monarchs. In short, don't expect this to be very focused on realism, as it's more about the story of the characters then the realism of the setting.
