Kings of Tyranny

THE AIR SPLITS WITH A THUNDERING ROAR. The furious cry of the dinosaurs echoes throughout the savage jungles and deserts of Telgaia. The cry for violence echoes in the hearts of man: the world over, young nations flex their muscles and send eager warriors to test their strength on one another’s shields and spears.
