A dozen unlikely, everyday heroes meet in a fully immersive fantasy realm, relying on their physical stamina, intelligence and resourcefulness to stand out as the one true hero in the battle of good and evil that is to come.

News arrives from the battlefield that Verlox and his army are approaching Saenctum's walls, and in preparation for the coming fray, the Paladins must display their field skills for Queen Ralia, undergoing a number of tasks to prepare for battle.

As the Queen Ralia lies sick in her bed, Sir Ansgar gathers the Paladins to pore over scrolls of symptoms to find an antidote. They begin to get suspicious of the Grand Vizier—an expert of all magic and poisons in the kingdom—has run out of ideas to save the queen. When they find the right potion, Crio takes them into the dangerous Marwood Forest where they meet the hag of Purgwal, "The Collector" who challenges them to find the potion's ingredients behind sealed doors. During the night, the castle comes under attack.

To prepare for the realities of war, the nine remaining paladins fight for survival in front of an excited Saenctum, and while one formidable warrior emerges, three of the Paladins will face another test before the Fates.

An enemy attack on the outer walls puts Castle Saenctum in jeopardy; one team must face a grueling Fates challenge.

A dark army spy infiltrates the castle; a demanding challenge tests the focus and diligence of the Paladins; six are left to continue.

The Dark Army prepares to attack; three Paladins enter enemy territory to avoid being banished.

A village is burned when a dragon escapes.

The stakes reach a new height when the Paladins are taken prisoner. They must act quickly in order to save themselves and the Queen. Ultimately, only one is safe from the Fates leading to their most emotional banishment yet.

The final challenge puts the Paladins to a demanding test. After the grueling competition, the quest is complete and "One True Hero" has emerged. The celebration is short-lived and our "Hero's" work is not finished--Verlox must be vanquished.
