The winter has been long and harsh, as has the rule of the Winter Queen. The time has come however, for spring to take over and the Summer Court to rise. For eons, the Winter Court and its queen have faded into the dark every year as the weather changes and the Summer Court takes power. Once again the transition will occur when the frost melts and the green things grow. The Winter Queen has different plans this year though. Her Knight, fresh in his role as protector of winter, and new to the trappings of power, is determined to make his Queen’s kingdom last through the summer, and perhaps forever. Now a great siege is in the making. With winter refusing to yield to the summer, the world is in peril. Only the strongest of Knights will be able to break the siege and bring the seasons back into balance again. Will you be the savior of Summer? Foam swords provided.
