The Fortress of Eve

The kingdom of Valhalla is currently ruled by its rightful heir
King Garamond II, a fair-minded young man and like his father before him is
cherished by the people of the land. His predecessor was the evil Lord of
Infinity, his uncle but that is another story.

In order to rule the kingdom efficiently, King Garamond II has
decided to marry with the sole purpose of continuing the royal bloodline
producing natural heirs to the throne. However all the eligible ladies within
Valhalla have been kidnapped by Queen Eve and imprisoned within her fortress in
the neighboring kingdom far from Valhalla.

So whilst Valhalla sleeps, King Garamond II begins his quest of
rescue in the hope to find a bride and to live happy ever after.
