Gold & Graves: Return to Swordhaven

Explore the Royal Court... But Beware of the Secrets Buried Beneath It

Swordhaven's royal ballroom has opened to the public, and nobles from Chiral Valley, Battleon, and Darkovia have gathered once more. Knights in polished armor mingle with attentive ladies-in-waiting, servants move carefully among them. This is where Greenguard's elite have always gone to mingle, whisper, and engage in the political machinations that have REALLY run the country for centuries.

But step beyond the ballroom into the courtyard, and the picture changes. King Dethrix the First had a fondness for deadly flora... And a habit of burying his enemies beneath the roses. Head to /SwordhavenGardens now to dig into what's really going on at court.

The gold and gems of Swordhaven's elite may shine brightly... but there's rot underneath.
