Story
It's been a while since the events of Argon's Evil Lair. With the evil warlock Argon out of the way, the continent of Krelaila sure seems more peaceful. Nargad, a grown man, promoted to captain of King Halberds army retreated to a lonely existence in his rebuilt house in Millton. Filled with terrible grief for his mother and traumatic experiences from his battle with Argon, he is one day visited by one of King Halberd's soldiers.

Krelaila is in an emergency situation: though Argon has been taken care of, it appears Nargad killed him too late and Argon's plans to conquer the world had already come in action. From the deepest, darkest depths of hell Argon summoned the gruesome creatures named Rebonites, a monstrous race which thrives on murder and torture. But now Argon has been disposed of, the Rebonites have no leader and they go their own awful way.

The Rebonites already conquered the eastern kingdoms of Krelaila by their surprise arrival. Halberd and his two allies Egbert and Richard immediately built up a tightened defense, but they fear it won't last long for the Rebonites are in vaster numbers and are far more... deadly.

Luckily, Halberd has a plan. A plan involving one of the worlds oldest relics, having the potential to banish the Rebonites from existence itself. Of course, only one could have the entire fate of the world on his shoulders... Here continues the story of our beloved Nargad.
