Philosopher witch Teijia unleashes a scorpion-god whose venom threatens reality itself! As the world crumbles, the Stormraiders make a final desperate bid for power. This time, you'll need more than faith and friends; you'll need an army! Become a warlord, crime boss, or divine leader, traversing oceans and deserts to find a weapon capable of defeating the Unconquerable Scorpion.
Familiar Faces, New Challenges. Reunite with—or confront—Melaxu the nymph philosopher and Tamur the Desert Empire spy. But beware the return of Stormraiders Galimar and Gisla, and the demands of King Hyras and the Desert Empress.
New Allies, New Perils. Recruit Col, the satyr general, and his ward Clannath, a crow-woman cursed by the God of Rage. Expand your territory and safeguard your followers, but watch out for the ambitions of both dark and heavenly priests—who still view you as a heretic.
The Fate of Philosophy. As King Hyras and Lord Vankred clash, Teijia unleashes her ultimate weapon: Magdala, the Unconquerable Scorpion, a creature capable of destroying the very foundations of existence. Can anything stop it?
