The realm’s hopes lie in a the hands of a group of adventurers. The deeds they accomplish and the secrets they uncover will forever change their entire world... and not always for the best.

Vol 2: The Knights of the Silver Quill have saved the realm of Greyhawk. It's a time of peace and plenty until a fortune teller sends the Knights on a quest that ends very, very badly. Only with time and a new generation can the new Knights rise and pick up where the others left off, and just in time... a war among Titans on Oerth is brewing.
