The Hero of Freedom Championship 2019
The Hero of Freedom Championship
Larket's first annual Hero of Freedom Championship! No sovereign nation or city-state in all of Lithrydel cherishes freedom as much as Larket. King Macon and Queen Josleen seek their Hero of Freedom who embodies the fighting spirit, generous heart, and courage that freedom requires.
The tournament will take place across Larket, from its arena to the fort to the Enchanted Forest the Red Tower to the cemetery and so on. Each fight will take place in an arena prepared with environmental dangers to raise the stakes. Heroes beware!
The championship will kick off August 1st.
