===Backstory===
{{cvid|RoE 1.0 CD-Heroes3-DATA-HEROES3 VID-NEUTRALC-smk-NEUTRALC|thumbtime=0:00|float=left}}
In times of strife, your mercenary ways will earn you great rewards. With [[Erathia]] collapsing under the weight of the [[Nighon]] onslaught in the east, the opportunity for some land grabbing has presented itself in the west.  [[Erathia]]'s lands are ours for the taking.
{{town|Neutral|noname=}} Unnamed female retainer: Representatives from both [[Tatalia]] and [[Krewlod]] seek your services... again. Both nations claim the last strip of [[Erathia]]n land between their countries. Few Erathian castles remain in the area.  They are nothing more than token resistance.  The most ferocious battles will occur between Tatalia and Krewlod.  Ironically, this land has little value. This is a border war. Tatalia seeks to further extend its reach from the lowlands to the hills. Krewlod wants to halt Tatalia’s march before it reaches their northern border. No matter which side you fight for, the other will perceive you as a traitor. Choose wisely.  Choose the winning side.  Your life depends upon it.

====In-Game====
=====[[Stronghold]] Side=====
You receive your orders from one of Duke Boragus's generals.  "I've never liked mercenaries myself, but you've managed to prove yourself worthy enough to get offered a second contract.  I hear that ol' Tralossk was so mad you turned him down that he ordered your head delivered to him in a basket!"

"Anyway, in case you hadn't noticed, this is a border war. Ol' Tralossk has got it into his head that he'd like some of our territory. YOU are here to stop him. Duke Boragus likes you, but your life won't be worth spit if the Tatalians show up at the doors of the Duke's Palace."
