__TOC__
== Campaign ==
=== Right-click text ===
All [[Finneas]] or [[Sandro]] must do is remove the Duke of this area.  Once he is gone, they will be literally a step away from the throne.  The new king is still not settled into his throne and will be easily replaced.  With any luck, he will suffer an accident in the future.

=== Prologue ===
[[File:H3x2_RNd.png|400px|thumb]]
{{H|Sandro|hero_link=Sandro|image=Sandro_Before||0=}}: Soon [[Duke Alarice]] will find himself permanently among the dead.  Right now our plans go well as we prepare to launch an assault.  [[Finneas]] does not agree with my tactics, but I know that his tactics are certain death.  It is only a matter of time before he realizes his error and follows my direction.  Soon he will come to see that he cannot survive without my guidance.
