To the east of Neferatia, the servant of the Blood God grows in power, building mighty armies and preparing for war against the vampire queen, whilst to the south Sigmar sends the Anvils of the Heldenhammer, crushing the forces of Nurgle and preparing to join the war for their own reasons. Hiding unseen and unknown in her own lands, a enemy plots and schemes for vengeance against the Mortarch.
Neferata must call upon all of her skill in diplomacy, manipulation and war to conquer her enemies.
Quotes
Nobility is a useful weakness, easily exploited. I have heard it, time and again, through age upon age, proclaimed to be a strength. I have yet to see a single instance where this is true. Should the impossible appear, however, I confess without hesitation that it would interest me greatly.
