With a party of trusted allies, he defeated the Demon King, he stood at the pinnacle of fame and glory. But when the time came to share the spoils of victory, he learned a cruel truth: His so-called allies, Aelira the gentle healer, Rhogar the steadfast tank, Jorin the playful rogue, and Velena the wise mage, were anything but.
