Shadows of War: Pirate Queen's Favor

The ShadowLord is coming to collect

Last week, we survived and encounter with Teja the Pirate Queen. She is one of the fierce, independent warriors Malgor has recruited to his side, but in restoring her lost crew, we've won a favor. A SMALL favor. She will not turn you in to collect the ShadowLord's bounty, but there's plenty of treachery to go around. This weekend, fight to stay alive and uncaptured as Pirate Queen Teja's crew shows their true colors... and go after the ShadowLord's real prize!

The story so far...

After Malgor the Shadowlord failed to recruit you into his Army, tried to imprison you, AND accused you of killing the Queen of Monsters, two things became very clear. HE cannot be trusted and YOU need to take action against him. FAST.

The Queen of Monsters seemed content to let her children and allies wreak havoc in her name. But Malgor is actively recruiting people to take over our world. And ALL the worlds. That means we need to start gathering our allies and power now, and preventing him from doing the same.

You have already added Varga, Goddess of War, to your party, and reawakened a small part of your power again. But you will need to hone it further before you will be able to reach all of the people we need. Last week, we began the quest for our next ally -- Teja, the Pirate Queen of the southern seas.

She is known for being fearless, and loyal to her crew.
She put out her own eye, and had it alchemically transformed into an enchanted gemstone orb that turns people to stone.
Malgor is wants her to be his ally... which means there must be a VERY good reason to prevent that.

The Shadows of War Story Continues in June...

Pirate Queen Teja is only the first of many allies we'll need if we want to take on ShadowLord Malgor... and WIN. Next week, we launch the epilogue of the 7 Deadly Dragons Saga with the opening of the Mysterious Egg. Then, in June, we'll return to the Shadows of War Saga to check in our Empress Miko, our current allies, and quest for more help.
