But something far more dangerous lurks beneath their political games. In the depths, a Dreadgod begins to stir from its slumber. When the tournament concludes, this ancient terror will emerge. The Monarchs hold the key to stopping it or letting it loose upon the world. Their decision will depend on who survives their own deadly competition.
